The only times when workouts to mean mean anything and give any signs away are with Maidens, First-Time Starters, and Comebackers, are the only times when workouts mean much of anything with regards to actually using the workouts to potentially mean much of anything. At this point, you will not gain anything from Derby week workouts other than overreaction and overanalyzation.
Strongly disagree. These reports often point me towards a ready horse and get me off of someone who looks good on paper. It's very subjective, but I trust Welsch and a handful of other guys who have an eye for this sort of thing.
