resolute only in refusing to race: can run a bit but won't
an arrant coward
a thorough jade
when it comes to a struggle, discretion always triumphs over the remaining parts of valour
likely to refuse to start, or run wide, or do anything else he can think of to avoid racing
a stubborn, lazy, wilful pig of a horse
soon showed that he had no intention of racing if he could help it
a plodder and a rogue
eight hundredweight of cowardice
a well-bred thief who will never win again

Just opening Mackenzie & Selby's Hunter Chasers and Point-to-Pointers of 1999 at random:
One For The Chief: "re-emerged looking like a barrage balloon in '98, and adamantly refused to gallop properly (presumably doing the same thing at home, if his size was any guide) ... a lost cause"
And that was one of the good horses!

Dandelion Lad: "appallingly doggy for such a youngster"
(Yet the horse had managed to get up in a driving three-way finish at Mollington that season!)

Dels Lad: "Mother was a barmpot, and clearly has his own devils, but reveals none of her ability. Often very unruly in the preliminaries (has been threatened with referral to Portman Square), and if connections have an atom of sense they will not attempt to race him again."
