Ditto to what has already been said. Like to see a good pattern of works with no breaks for young horses (or any horses for that matter.) The pattern and length of works are more important to me than the actual times. (I want them fast when I have money on them; not at 5AM.)

Also, I like to see when "the screws are tightened" and gaps of 8 to 10 days between works get shortened down to 7 or 6 or even 5 days before a race. I feel the barn is really targeting this particular race and the horse should be taken very seriously.

It seems I see these things more often early in the year and most often on the West coast.
