Chicken may have, at one point, lived up to his nickname. In fact, we're sure he did - it's the reason he's such a monster to handle now. Likely someone along the way babied the big scared colt, shying away from things that made him scared. Now he's just awful. He grew out of the fear, but the bad habits formed by some well-meant trainer are here to stay. He's a bully, trying to knock the handler down to get out of the stall or paddock and absolutely dragging them on the end of a lead. He's headstrong and willful, and even something as little as putting his bridle on becomes a chore. He picks his head up as high as he can, not because he's scared - but because he's been inadvertently taught that if he does that, he doesn't have to work. He bites just to do it. If you push the subject, he reacts like a spoiled child. Rearing, kicking, charging... all of the things that would have gotten him sold if he wasn't such a spirited runner and brilliant competitor. Once someone's on board, most of his bad behavior stops. He's not pushy in the saddle like he is on the ground - for some reason it doesn't even occur to him that he can still take control with a rider on, and the riders are incredibly careful to keep that status quo. He's only headstrong when faced with the challenge of a duel down the stretch.
