Cupido Draft Horses, or more commonly known as Cupido Drafts [CDH for short], are typically bigger and thicker than the average horse. They tend to range from 15 to 18.2 hands high, however, the largest ever recorded was a 19.2 hand high stallion, the founding stallion of the breed. Cupido Drafts are robust draft horses with stark roman noses, typically sporting well-defined muscles and big hooves to accompany their large size. One of the most sought after traits within Cupido Draft Horses, though, are their thick manes and tails. Their mane and tails are incredibly silky and have a natural curl, giving it a beautiful wavy look that is very popular around the world for shows. Cupido Drafts, though originally thought to be bred for look and companionship, can be used for almost any event that they are eligible for.

[Chamrosh]

Owner: Chamrosh
Show Name: Ares' Lieutenant
Barn Name: Alala
Gender: Mare
Halter: Wideband, pupil colour, but with some sort of white or black design on it that matches a war-like theme (eg skulls, little crossed swords, flames, etc; but picking something that's actually possible for you to draw at that scale).
Prompt: Alala was the Greek goddess of the war cry. She was the niece of Ares, and as one of the founding members of the cupido breed is called Mars, this feels like a really fitting link to me. Pretty much all of Alala's close relatives seem to be war gods (matching the eye colour name).

I was originally thinking Ares' righthand but it's her left foot that's white, so referencing the left makes more sense, and I'm British so Lieutenant is pronounced as left-tenant for me. I get to make a silly pun off of something small and inconsequential! And it still fits the military sort of styling that pairs nicely with Ares, too.
