I agree with Dan. The lack of published works is never a negative at Tampa. There are too many places nearby with training tracks that the horse could be stabled at and training on. He's getting his work, it's just not being reported.
I know this one is not a firster, but some of the best first time starter hits are with horses that have been prepped on the farm. They are often overlooked because nobody has seen them work and usually those connections are not part of the backside grapevine.
Also, the trainer switch is not a negative one IMHO.
