As opposed to the ones who rallied big-time for second... they are always overbet next time out, and seem to crash and burn often.

I'll also add a long-time maiden who finally breaks his maiden and then comes right back and wins again. Often the horse simply figured out what he's supposed to do.

No Joking, my all-time favorite angle is

First race after gelding. I'd be running from the gate as fast as I could too!

true, but hard for the general public to find out about that one

Generally the only way to find out is at the track when they list changes. Sometimes you can figure it out with PPs versus what the Race Program lists him as for that day's race. i.e. If his last out he was a colt and in the program today he's a gelding, but that can be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
