Field Report: Primavera Wins Three Straight at Padre Garcia, Rating +17 — Surface-Affinity Data Is Stacking Up at the New Track, and Tiger Horse Farm's Vertical Holds
The 5yo filly Primavera won the Chairman's Cup II (2,000m) at the new Padre Garcia Racetrack by 5 lengths. The more interesting structure is that, after a 7th-place beating on debut, she rattled off three straight to push her Philracom rating from 48 to 65 (+17). Her breeder is Tiger Horse Farm of Benhur Abalos Jr. (the breeder of 2012 Triple Crown winner Hagdang Bato). Read alongside Primavera, Circus Crowd, and Isa Bell — all horses with multiple wins on the same surface — the new track's surface predictability is starting to show as early data.
