According to the Horse Personality Quiz ( http://www.horsepersonality.com/quiz.html ), Barokko is definitely NOT a Rock Star. The quiz assesses 8 personality traits:
Dominant or Submissive: How much control do they need in their world?
Energetic or Lazy: How much effort do they put in? How do they express themselves? How much energy do they carry?
Curious or Afraid: How do they approach life and learning?
Friendly or Aloof: How are they motivated? How do they fit in socially?
Barokko is a combination of Submissive, Lazy, Afraid/Curious, and Friendly. The Afraid/Curious trait could go either way, I had a really hard time answering the questions for that trait. My conclusion is that Barokko has been SLAF, but is becoming SLCF as he matures.
SLAF - The Wall Flower (Baby- Barokko)
Wrap these sweet, kind, gentle horses up and keep them safe. They are not very brave and tend to internalize their worries. They want to please and will try very hard for you, but they can be pushed too fast very easily. They make few demands of you and are quite content to perform the same tasks repeatedly as long as you are pleased with them and the jobs are not to strenuous. Quiet enough for the beginner once they understand what is expected of them.
SLCF - The Steady Eddy (Grown-up Barokko)
If you are a novice or amateur, this is the horse for you. They are quiet and predictable, loving and engaging, willing to learn new things, willing to hang out with you and do nothing. This is not your big ego, career-oriented horse. They are happy to just be. Consistent and loyal, all you need to do is enjoy!
