I think a workout or race over a surface is overrated. Either he's going to like the track or he isn't. If he's going to like it, he won't need a work over it beforehand. If he isn't going to like it, I think it's better to not work on it first. There's a school of thought that says if a horse doesn't like a surface, his best effort over it will come in the first one because whatever it is they don't like about the track, they remember it the second time. Say for instance, a track stings their feet. They remember that the next time and run a poorer race.
