In my foray into trip handicapping, I started to see more and more that a horse with an "obvious" bad trip (i.e. block or steadied in the stretch) did not run the expected improved race in his next start, rather the improved effort came in the horses second start off the bad trip - usually at better odds. It reminded me of Ray Taulbot's beaten A or B angle, where the horse was given a conditioning race after showing early speed ( A angle) or improved finished (B angle) followed by the go for he win effort again usually at higher odds.
Has anyone else noticed the same thing?
