From the moment she was born, her future was set in stone. She would always be around horses, she would always be financially secure, she would always have the ability to get her way. As a little girl, she attended private schools and went to church religiously. It was not uncommon to see her in a dress so big it looked like a closet vomited on her. Her parents, however they tried, could never get her to quite settle in just like all the other rich kids, she was never quite as accepting of them or of all the fancy balls and parties. But when her parents went to the racetrack they owned or the training stables they were partners with, Niki always rode along.
She started rebelling around the age of eight, and began demanding a change to her schedule. Most people would think it ridiculous how a child could push their parents with tantrums, but her mother and father let her be queen from the moment she was born. She insisted on something that would shock many. "I want to go to normal school." She had said. By the age of eight, she had learned that her life was unusual, that most people don't go to privileged schools, she wanted to be like everyone else. She spent her life in the public school system and kept her family life a secret, but as time passed and she reached the higher grades, it became impossible, for someone must have connected her last name with the race track. She was quickly turned away from by some and leeched onto by others, wishing to get easy money off a girl who was too nice to know when to say 'no'.
She was hired at the local grocery store at the age of 16, much to the humiliation and dismay of her parents and rich friends. "Why do you insist on living like them? You have money, dear, use it." She recalls her own aunt telling her just after she was hired, a time Niki could not have been more proud of at that time. Her family became more and more nervous about her plights into the blue collar life and when she was seventeen and still car-less, they had an intervention. Her family would give her a car and send her right into a prized equitation school to begin showing her how to be a horse trainer if she would just 'come home'. In that same breath, Niki replied "I am home, and I will get to where I want to be, but I can't do it on your bribe."
It has been four years since that last talk, and a great deal more has happened to her, but only a few shining advances. Niki has since moved out of Sacramento to Twinbrook, a place renown for its. . . swamps. She was not anticipating that when she came, but would not go back on her word to live where one of the lesser known racehorses with a story that hits home to her, was born. She has since completed her first course in becoming a horse trainer and is actively working in her - yes, public school - college education in Animal Sciences. Soon, she will take on courses in Horsemanship and return back to the equitation school to advance her knowledge. Additionally, she is also breeding Spanish Mustangs.
When she was young and eagerly watching horse races all the time, there was one day when her parents begrudgingly agreed to see one of their close friends, with money nearly as high as their own, put on a reenactment show of the U.S. Army Calvary mounts fighting the Apache. This, to her parents, was comical and a complete waste of funds, but to Niki, it was something different all together. The Apache rode spotted and painted ponies, the U.S. Army rode on the backs of a horse unlike any she had ever seen up close before: They rode the Spanish Mustang. With their long manes and tails, their thick crested neck and their endless training, they were miraculous. Showing off the discipline of the true art of Dressage, the method that brought a soldier into battle without fear of his mount making the wrong move. They were so beautiful showing off their training, it is in this moment she would not breed race horses like her family, but to breed the Spanish Mustang, in all it's glory.
