Character Analysis
Gabardino is the driver who works for Hahp's dad. Overall he acts like a loyal servant, doing exactly what Hahp's dad says: "Gabardino reined in, pulling the stallion to a halt when my father told him to" (6.1). We know from Hahp's observations that "Gabardino handled horses gently" (2.10) though, so at least that's one good thing about the dude.
