Where his name come's from:
Asgard is actually the land of the God's in Norse Mythology. One of the many stories originating from Old Norse was the Anglo Saxon short story/poem "Beowulf" where Grendel is a monster feared by all that terrorizes the town and kills citizens. I thought it fitting as there have been many similar stories about man eating tigers.

Grendel was the fiercest of all Lone Oak Stable's horses. He trusted no one. He loved no one. He was highly independent and preferred to spend his time out in the wild pastures of LOS. Grendel had stealth like you would not believe. When in the forest you may have caught a glimmering mist of his pale golden coat.. before he vanished... and if you were not watchful, he would spring out of nowhere and attack with flying hooves. No one knew why he was such a rogue horse. Some say the tiger mutation got to his head and turned him into a killer, other's say it must have been his upbringing when as a foal, he encountered a dragon and had to fight for his life. But no one knows for sure. Staff at LOS had attempted to tame the Tiger stallion but with no avail…

Times became hard and LOS had to sell off their stock, Grendel included. Fortunately  someone was brave enough to take the Tiger stallion, but after many months, they too were unable to tame him. He was again turned out to pasture to live out is days as a wild stallion. 

Zane (a former rider at LOS) was driving buy one day and saw the glimmering gold and grey coat of the mighty stallion and slammed on his breaks. He jumped out of the vehicle and ran to the fence to be sure of what he saw. Grendel, grazing in an open field. Zane's heart skipped a beat. The stallion looked at him with glassy blue eyes, uninterested, he dropped his head back down to graze. "Yeah, thats him" Zane thought, smirking at the stubborn stallion.
Zane made an offer to the stable to buy Grendel, and when they said yes, he wasted no time rounding the horse up into a trailer and taking him home to Rivendell Riding Academy.
And this time, he was determined to tame the stallion...
