Hercules

The Comedian

Hercules joined Roots as a foal in March 2024 and is quite possibly the funniest horse in the yard. He’s in training, and he’s Wasine’s dad.

Personality

Hercules is quite possibly the funniest horse at Roots. He’s packed with character, adventure and jokes, and there’s usually something going on when he’s around. He’s also a bit of a charmer with the mares, and he’s dad to Wasine. Life with Hercules is rarely boring.

Funny, adventurous, cheeky, charismatic and a complete ladies’ man.

Family

Dad to Wasine.
