Dark Horse

I chose it because as an idea it appeals to me.  The unexpected. The individual people didn't rate or the individual people didn't notice.  I like the idea of the person who keeps their skill or capabilities under wraps.  But then, couldn't The Dark Horse be the name of a bar?  Maybe for you it conjures up an actual dark horse, in a race, in a field.  I'm not looking for anything specific in a piece of writing beyond being transported in some way by it.
