I agree with your view on the works overall, but I especially follow the workout patterns of Canani's runners as an indication to how they are coming into a specific race. He's one that is an exception to the rule IMO. Just as Asmussen rarely works his runners hard in the mornings, yet wins at a high % with 1sters. Did you have the Alcova Kid on opening day?

No, he could win 4 more times and I won't be mad, he burned me way too many times.

With Arlington closed, not playing that much anyways, focused on the BC....
