Flashy, intelligent and driven, Firecracker has been imprinted with that trademark Super Sparky charm. He is the spitting image of the foundation stallion and is a pleasure to work with on and off the track. With a mind that's always in overdrive this colt is built on near endless energy, something that is reflected in his running.

A juvenile with manners is hard to come by and many people often mistake him for a much older horse. He's something of a camera hog and will 'pose' whenever cameras are out because he adores the spotlight. Saddling him up isn't even a chore - even when the colt is particularly excited. Fillies and mares get him prancing about but any bad behaviour with this colt can be corrected within minutes verbally.

​He has to have something or someone to play with at all times including in his stall, out in the pasture and when travelling to different race tracks (give him a jolly ball and he's set for life). At times he may get a little too excited and nip out at his handlers but only to play with no true bad intentions behind his actions.

With a weakness for peppermints and affection, Crackers is a lovable dork in the stable. On the track, though, he is a formidable opponent. He's spirited and mentally quick - two traits that push him to victory. A strong closer, Firecracker prefers to stay near the back of the pack before dashing forwards when he spots an opening towards the end. ​
