Ruby has a lot of influence over the horses around her, for no real obvious reason. She is not a particularly dominant filly by nature (though certainly won't be bullied), but perhaps it is her intelligence and carefully-calculated schedule that causes horses to be drawn to her. She is quite independent at heart, and feels no real pull towards remaining with the herd, however as she goes about her daily business she tends to form a little congregation of followers and they all tinker along after her. Perhaps it is her wits and routine that makes her so appealing as a 'sort-of-leader'; she always seems to look like she has a plan, and it appears some are captivated by it.
That aside, she is a pleasant horse to manage, and is always keeping things bright and upbeat around the stables. With intelligence comes a cheeky sense of play, and she's quite the thief of anything she deems of interest at the time; be it a rug hanging on the fence or her own lead rope. She's quick to pinch something in reach and start parading around tossing her head about. If there's anything to upset her, it would be breaking her routine; when something doesn't tick over quite how she expected it to (eg. feed time is late) she can become briefly anxious and will engage in bad habits that aren't typical for her; such as chewing at her stall door, but settles when things fall back into place. She is a spirited and determined filly, but by no means aggressive; still, she is passionate about her work and likes to keep herself busy and ontop of her game.

Ruby's intelligence becomes more-so apparent on the field, and she requires a good relationship with her jockey so her movements can be monitored in unison. Disagreeing with her can throw her off her game, but she is a serious force to be reckoned with when everybody is on the same page. She despises being forced into the gates, and generally won't load if one of the gate-boy's attempt to push her in; if let to load of her own accord she will slide right in. Ruby navigates her actions based on the movements of the horses around her, and though her break is usually quite average, she typically settles somewhere between the midpack runners and front runners, waiting for her opportunity at a clean run. She will usher in when she finds a gap, or go wide as a second resort, sweeping up to challenge the leaders during the last half of the race and finish with a storming sprint for the win.
