Twist is a fun little filly to be around. If she was a person, she would be the girl who everybody wants as their best friend. She is cool, easygoing, and eager to do her job. She loves people, but is never pushy or overly excited around them. Even while her pasture mates take down fences and splash in the water troughs, Twist would never think about causing trouble- unless she was sure nobody was looking. Always calm and collected, Twist is the easiest of the juveniles on race day, and is often happily munching on hay while the trainers struggle to wrangle saddles onto the others. She is one of the most dependable horses in the barn, and is by far a favorite.

Twist is easy to load in the gate, as she is fazed by nothing. However, once she gets going, she is all business. She has an uncanny ability to zero in on the task at hand and ignore practically everything going on around her in order to fully focus. When she races, the only thing on her mind is reaching top speed as quickly as possible. She likes to hang just behind the leaders, where jockey Elisabeth Young often runs her mounts, waiting for the right moment to strike. When the leaders show the slightest signs of weakness, Twist surges ahead, gaining ground on them to secure a win.
