    I’m onto the references. Not a fan of those guys.

    Yes, two Cain and Abel references in one: your Oberhauser guess seemed the best to me. I'm trying to think of any other brothers in Bond- Mischa and Grischa?

    Neither Mishka nor Grishka.

    Two more clues...

    1. "Well, they tell me that I'm wanted, yeah, I'm a wanted man"...

    2. ... but I'm not Abel to withstand that.

    3. There's certainly fire in my loins!

    4. Bond is about to lose something very precious.

    Infer-yes! Well done @Birdleson it is indeed Inferno the rather fiery horse from AVTAK.

    Explanations...

    1. "Well, they tell me that I'm wanted, yeah, I'm a wanted man"...
    2. ... but I'm not Abel to withstand that.

    Multiple reference here to the song "Blaze of Glory". A blaze is an inferno, "I'm the colt in the stable" is the next line and, like Abel, Inferno has difficulty with Zorin's "Cain".

    3. There's certainly fire in my loins!

    Another fire reference, and obviously the steroids injection in his leg.

    4. Bond is about to lose something very precious.

    Zorin implies there are no consequence if Bond loses the race, but in fact he is about to lose Tibbett, his cover identity and nearly his life.

    5. This makes Crufts look easy.

    The obstacle course.

    6. Bond asks me to engage in some Snow Patrol.

    Chasing Cars!

    7. At some time recently I've been given an artificial lift. Or should I say elevator?

    Inferno must have gone to the secret underground lab discovered by Bond and Tibbett.

    8. Did these boys really know what they were in for?

    Zorin's "exercise boys" who take a beating on the course.

    Great character and great round! For some reason I had it in my head it was a speaking character... no idea where I got that idea from, and it wouldn't have helped me either way I don't think. :P
    Congrats @Birdleson and @Tokoloshe2, always fun when you're involved!

    EDIT: Your OP does say it's a speaking character! Did the horse talk? I haven't seen AVTAK in awhile! ;)

    Don't be surprised if in AVTAK, after some decades, horses start talking :--)
