PRIMARY STARTS TO LOOK INTERESTING

I can only make ballpark speed ratings for Italy at present. But I have to mention the seriously good time recorded by PRIMARY (39) when taking a Listed race at San Siro. He clocked 2.00.3 for the ten furlongs and only a very good horse can run that sort of time at San Siro however fast the going.

Primary didn't seem to stay the twelve furlongs in the Chester Vase (or it could be he disliked the slow pace) and he lost his action in the Dewhurst Stakes. He's now won all his other four starts and might well be a Group 1 horse. Certainly I'd be wary of opposing him in his next start.
