Username: OutFoxed
Barn: Foxtail Stables
Show name: Bucephalus' Flight
Call name: Gorgon
Gender: Stallion
Age: 4 years old
Height: 16 HH
Breed: American Warmblood
Discipline: N/A
Stud fee: N/A

Behind the Breed: As soon as I saw the coloration and the type requirement, I instantly thought of the American Warmblood. With the Americas known for boldly patterned horses filled with splashes, spots and bright coloration, the American Warmblood embodies the colors with the athletic abilities of a warmblood. The conformation of this Bay Tobiano truly shows through the American Quarter Horse and American Paint Horse bloodline while the athleticism comes from the American Thoroughbred and the heavier warmblood build type from the working draught Percheron, Normandy Cob and possibly the Irish Draught. While his ancestry is full of a smörgåsbord of breeds, his recent lineage is pure American Warmbloods registered in the American Warmblood Registry and the American Warmblood Society.

Behind the Name: This stallion's markings display an extraordinary pattern and I immediately was thinking something with Wings - Pegasus and the like. I've always loved the story of Alexander the Great's Bucephalus which became the inspiration for his show name. Bucephalus was known for having an 'Ox-head' as it's the meaning behind his name and having a wall-eye, I believe that Bucephalus' Flight matches well - a less than perfect head and his off eye is going to be a wall-eye. The ancient horse was described as afraid of his own shadow - this stallion's disposition follows this with a hope to also follow the Great's fierceness in battle and competitions. The second part clearly comes from the wing marking.
His barn name comes from the Pegasus myth - as Pegasus was born from the God Poseidon and the Gorgon Medusa. This stallion wasn't worthy of a cliche name such as Pegasus nor snake-y enough to be fully Medusa. As a Gorgon though, he might take on the ability to 'Poison' or 'Heal' depending on which vial of blood was drunk, but hopefully he won't turn people into stone. Truly I hope he embodies the fierce determination and bravery of Bucephalus as well as the Healing aspect of the Gorgon while taking the protective nature of both namesakes.
