Brego [spoiler]
Brett C.

Primula, according to the story summary in the kiddies photo guide to the movie....

[stop reading now if you wish to avoid spoilers]

...Brego is the horse given to Aragorn by Eomer. Later Aragorn tells the attendants at
Edoras to let Brego run free because he [Brego]has seen enough of war. There is even an implication that Brego may have been Theodred's horse before his death in the Battle of the Fords of Isen. Aragorn then takes another horse, name unknown.

Anyway, later when the refugees from Edoras are fleeing Saruman's army [on their way to Helm's Deep, not Dunharrow as in the books]they are ambushed by wolf riders. Aragorn is unhorsed and left behind in the swirl of battle, but ultimately rescued by Brego, who finds him and bears him to Helm's Deep so he can make his truimphal entry to the hall through the double doors, as seen in the trailer.
