Aragorn and 'Brego?'
Primula Gamgee-took

I am concerned about Aragorn's horse. I have seen in places that Aragorn is riding on a horse named 'Brego'. There is no horse in the book named Brego. It actually talks about Brego in the book, but Brego is a man, and he is the one who built the Golden Hall in Edoras. The only two horses Aragorn are on are Hasufel, lent to him by the Rohirrim, and his own horse, Roheryn. I've also seen, in the trailor of "The Two Towers" that it looks like Aragorn is on two different horses. One looks like a sorrel, and the other looks like a chestnut bay (they're really not the same). Is Hasufel going to be in the movie, or is it going to be 'Brego'? Anyway, Aragorn is on Hasufel (not Brego) in "The Two Towers" and he doesn't get Roheryn until "The Return of the King." Besides, if it is a horse that a main character is riding on, then I think that horse is also an important character. But it probably won't be that big of a deal. It surely won't ruin the movie. But I'm just concerned, and would like someone to explain it to me.
