Personality: Obsessive, Hyperactive, Flighty
Tack Prompt: First Meeting
The rescue regularly took in retired racers who were past their prime. Males tended to be taken out of the program sooner than females as they became more and more relaxed with time, which meant they weren't usable on the racetrack. This wasn't the case with young Asterisk however, and that was apparent the second I stepped into his stall. It was almost dangerous with the amount of stomping, spitting and thrashing of his tail as I tried to approach. Thankfully, he was easily distractible with food, and only one particular food too, fresh grapes. With that second of calm, I managed to slip a halter on him to leaad him out of the racing barn and back home to meet the rest of his new Scuffle.
