When Philonicus the Thessalian brought Bucephalus to sell to Philip, asking for thirteen talents, they went down to the plain to test the horse. However, it appeared wild and extremely difficult to handle, it would not accept a rider, nor tolerate the voice of any of Philip’s attendants, but instead, it became more agitated with each attempt. When Philip grew angry and ordered the horse to be led away, deeming it too wild and unmanageable, Alexander, who was present, exclaimed: "What a horse I am losing, simply because they lack the skill and courage to handle it!" At first, Philip remained silent. But as Alexander kept repeating the same words, Philip finally said: "Are you criticizing your elders because you believe you know more, or because you think you can handle the horse?" Alexander replied: "I could handle this horse better than anyone." "And if you fail, what penalty will you pay for your recklessness?" asked Philip. "By Zeus," Alexander swore, "I will pay the full price of the horse myself!" At this, everyone laughed. Yet, Philip agreed to the wager. Immediately, Alexander approached the horse and, taking the reins, turned it toward the sun, for he had noticed that the horse was frightened by its own moving shadow, cast before it. He let the horse gallop lightly for a while, stroking it whenever it seemed tense or aggressive. Then, he quietly removed his cloak and leapt onto its back, sitting firmly in place. He gently pulled the reins, tightened his grip without using a whip or spurs, and when he felt the horse had relaxed and was ready to run, he let it go, guiding it with a stronger voice and pressing with his legs. At first, Philip and his attendants watched in tense silence. But when Alexander turned the horse and rode back, proud and composed, everyone erupted in cheers. Philip, deeply moved, is said to have shed a tear of joy and, as Alexander dismounted, he said to him: "My son, you must seek a kingdom worthy of yourself, for Macedonia is too small for you." — Plutarch, Parallel Lives Alexander [6]
