A strange college experience...

Hi all,
I just wanted to get some opinions on something. When I was in Racing college, all the horses naturally distrusted me and loved all the other students, all of them, barring one. He was called Damian, born on the 6/6/06 (hence the name) and he was the most savage, vicious horse to everyone but me. His first reaction when anyone else entered the box was to kick out, and even the students who'd been there before me wouldn't go in hist stable without an instructor or another student to hold him. My first day mucking out, I went straight in the box, shocking everyone with how relaxed he was around me. I believe it's because he is an introvert like me, avoiding general social contact with both horses and people, so we respected each other's space.
Opinions?
