The interesting detail here is Primo Lara's preference for normal ground conditions. On a standard racing surface, it wins 40 percent of the time—two wins from five races—a stark contrast to how it performs on other going. That kind of specificity is useful information: on days when the ground is ideal and the card favours this horse's profile, it becomes a different proposition altogether. Trainer Jane Chapple-Hyam, based in Dalham, Suffolk, clearly knows how to get the best from the horse, and the yard itself is in strong form with 24 winners sent out this season. Jonny Peate has been the most frequent rider, winning twice from seven races together at a rate of 29 percent—suggesting good understanding between horse and jockey. With three wins in its last six races and recent momentum on its side, Primo Lara looks like a horse worth watching, particularly when normal ground is forecast.
