Rescued from the event.
For socrates.
you have my sincerest apologies for this god-awful backstory, once again.
"This young boy, just three years of age, came from an owner that planned to train him for showjumping, though each time they would get near a jump, he would either try to throw his rider, bolt, refuse to follow orders, or all of the above. The owner, seeing no use to a horse that wouldn't jump, decided to sell him to any haphazard auction house that would take him. Weary of much, this colt seems to fear anything and everything, from the squeak of an old stall door to the sound of a bucket being carelessly dropped. The workers often have to be careful with him, moving very slowly and always staying where he can see them when handling him to prevent him from spooking and possibly injuring himself. Options to ease this anxious boy's fears should be discussed with an equine behavioral specialist, and it would be best to avoid riding him until his fears of everyday things, such as jumps and buckets, things that he could and likely will see every day."
