Dear J.B, over a period of time I gather some of J.B tid-bits .If you allow and your readers likes it will post it. Here are some of the samples.
1-Often late starters are late boomers insofar as not reaching their ultimate best until they are 5 or older.
2-Horses can always bounce or react short-or long term to a new top, paradoxically slight new tops often presage more imminent improvement.
3-Healty stake level grass horses seldom run too far off their best.
4- Be aware that while we always look for newtops, they come far less often than we expect.
5-Stake-level 3 yos can get real good in the spring and be able stay that way for a while
6-Pairing his previous top first out this year, a good sign.
7- An ouchy sort that doesn’t run long campaigns; these types often fire big first out off the layoff.
8- Sometimes big efforts close together take a lot out of a young
Horse.
9- Unsound horses often run their best off a layoff.
10- The classic pattern of the unsound horse—short campaigns and long layoffs
