Age: 6 years old

Gender: mare

Breed: Thoroughbred

Height: 16.2

Sire: Acatenango

Dam: Britannia

Temperment: Borgia is an old trooper. She is calm and collected but not
lifeless. When she walks she strides with confidence. She knows she is a
Champion(in Germany). She knows she's good. She's never in a hurry to get
to the post parade. She knows to conserve every last bit of energy to make
her late rally. Borgia just likes to take it easy basically. She doesn't
really get ansy. She's been to so many places that she knwos the drill. If
you ever ridden her you know that she loves to run tho. She gets a little
bit excitable when she sees that gate. But she never goes flip out.

Habits: Borgia or sometimes we call her Borgie likes to look out of her
stall. She likes to just watch the busling of the barn area. We work out
our younger horses first. But Johny our excersice rider will get her out
early too to warm up. Her and Johny will stand on the track watching. I
think Borgia likes to watch the youngsters. She even snorts when she sees
one misbehave. She'll sometimes nicker like she's the boss. The youngsters
sometimes wheel around to look at Borgia and she nickers and snorts back
again to them. On certain occasion it seems like Borgia set the straight
cause they behave afterwards.

Running Style: Borgia likes to come off the pace. Which sometimes can be
bad. She needs a nice slow pace up front. It doesn't mean she can't come
from a fast pace, but she likes it to be slow.

Favorite surface: Borgia has always run on the turf. She has never been in
a dirt race to my knowledge.

Favorite Track Conditions: Borgia can run on any surface, but her favorite
when there is more mositure on the ground. She likes a soft or yielding
course.
