If you are basing any bets on workout times of maidens, you will NEVER catch an Asmussen first-timer, and he is lethal first time out, especially on dirt. You also won't get anything out of Baffert, because you'd think every single one of his first-timers is going to debut like Roman Ruler. It goes both ways.
I don't bet too many races with a bunch of firsters because it's such a guessing game, and a game of who you know as much as what you know, but I definitely look at spacing and consistency more than any times of workouts.
