10 MORE J.B. TID-BITS

Here are 10 more of  J.B

11- Ran a big one in his debut but took a full year before breaking through that level in his last. That's not a healthy pattern.
12- As a rule it's tough to back fast, confirmed dirt runners against solid, albeit slightly slower turf racers.
13-  0-X pattern where the 0s are good runs and the Xs are bounces.
14- Goodhorses should be running top efforts often, usually at least every other run.
15- The consistent campaign and fairly short rest imply that this guy is going to run
another right at this level.
16- That effort earned a buried mark designation (!, adjacent the figure) meaning
the effort was better than it looked paper— The effort was disguised and often what ensues next-time out is exactly what's happening here—high odds because the effort doesn't look as good as say the one preceding it even though we know it was better and is competitive with these.
17- A  typical stake-level grass horse, in that he runs his top or close to it in every start.
18-  The classic Thoro-Graph sheet of the unsound horse—a few big figures, separated by wide open spaces. One of the great false handicapping assumptions is that all horses benefit from having a race under their belt following a layoff, an then improve—unsound horses often run their best fresh.
19- This is what sheet players call an 0-2, a top followed by a two point regression.
pattern an off race is more likely. If she or he backs up again we'll be interested in
betting her next time off the 0-2-X.
20-Sometimes it's not who you like, it's who you don't like.X and Y will take a lot of money, and are clear bet againsts,so the exotics using the contenders should be overlaid.
