One of my early take , is be aware of the trainers that train the fitness in and the ones that race the fittness into. Quick retun to the races almost always a positive, even wit a lackluster previous performance. We always use the term a prep race for a larger stake race. I think the lower tier horses are using the same theory and using rices to get the fitness. Of course one week is a short sample. The real trends will be evident after the fact. Above all the track appears to be very fair even with some of the monster pays. Most of the bigpaying horses can be identified in the form afterward if we were smart enough to find it.
