I find that the fastest works (compared to the rest of the field) usually come from very lightly raced horses and horses coming off a long layoff. So, I anticipate that these types are going to have fast works.
Recently raced or worked horses sometimes follow with slow works that are merely maintenance works.
I think you have to evaluate works within the context of the other form factors of a horse.
