Personality
Prim has definitely taken after her sire, proving herself to be just as much of an attention seeker as him. She is definitely a show off and it is impossible to miss her in the saddling paddock or the barn, as she is always causing some sort of ruckus. Prim is both extremely playful and extremely energetic, which are two qualities that mix like oil and vinegar - while she mainly throws her antics for attention, she can easily become dangerous with how big and powerful of a mare she is. It is impossible for her to lead like a normal horse. Everywhere she goes, she travels in a prancing jig, side stepping next to her handler and throwing out the occasional buck. She is also extremely vocal and will make it known that she is there and ready for attention. For this reason, everyone in the barn knows just to avoid crossing her path if you can. The only time she isn't dangerous is when she is on the track. She is still as much a show off on the track as she is off, but it is definitely more manageable under saddle. She will prance along the outrider, raring to go before the race. She is as competitive as she is playful and therefore loves the challenge that comes with racing. Overall, Prim doesn't have a mean bone in her body - she just really craves all the attention she can get.
While Prim takes after her sire in the barn, Prim turns into her dam on the racetrack. When it comes down to racing, she is highly competitive. She is the boss and will size up her competition before the race. She is calm in the post parade, other than her usual tactics of prancing and side stepping. She loads without a problem and breaks like a bullet, either taking the lead or finding a good position behind the leaders. She can play both the pace setter or the stalker. If she goes in the stalker route, Prim will stay right on the heels of the front runners and wear them down before the final turn. If she goes for the pace setter route, she will try to distance herself from the rest and put as much space in between her and the second place horse before the wire. In the final furlongs, Prim's competitive spirit really shines and fuels her to the finish line.
