Personality
Whispering Melody is affectionately known was Wendy around the barn. As a weanling, Wendy was stolen from the stables, no trace of where she went. Kaylin, then owner at the time, was very upset that her prized filly was missing. She looked everywhere. She went to auctions, thinking someone would try to sell her for money. She tried everything to find her beloved Wendy. Kaylin blamed her self for the filly's disappearance, so she seemed to disappear herself. About a year later, the filly turned up again! She was returned by a man stating that she was worthless, and couldn't run! Candi was in shocked at the filly's condition. She was skin and bones! And she shook at the sight of a man. With some tender love and care the filly came around. She gained weight, and turned out to be a beautiful yearling. Wendy is still very shy, and untrustworthy of some people. She is very unsocial but has bonded to our other yearling Wicca. If Wendy were a dog she would always be running around with her tail between her legs. She doesn't fight, nor does she like to be around them. She would rather be a loner, off by herself in the back of the paddock gazing. She likes to keep her distance from humans. Wendy does have a special bond with Kaylin. The two are very close, and Wendy is very different when she is with Kaylin. Kaylin returned after hearing the news that the Ebony Gold Lady was returned. She wanted to see for herself that the filly was who they said she was. After seeing the horrible condition the filly was in, Kaylin stayed and help take care of her. After a while Wendy learned to trust Kaylin, realizing that she wouldn't be hurt again. When the filly is around Kaylin, she is very relaxed, and calm. She is a very demanding filly. If she wants your attention she will get your attention on way or another. Because of the strong bond the two have, Kaylin is her Jockey. They seem to read each other very well, and understand what the other thinks. Wendy does great with Kaylin! During a race Wendy likes to hang out in the back of the pack, close to dead last or dead last, and with in the last few furlongs she will work her way to towards the lead. She likes to take the win by surprise, shocking the crowd. Most never see her coming because they think she is a lost cause, always starting out last, but she will prove them wrong. Wendy is a determined filly with tons of heart.
