Some who's horses seem to all need a race. With the length of the meet in mind. Other's that start out white hot and taper off because the purses perhaps invite them to try to get one extra race out of a horse who will be running for half as much at the next town. Looking back at the charts for the entire 57 days may point to some of these trends. Saying this a 3rd time because this is PA. I AM NOT suggesting anything corrupt. More predicting over all meet philosophy and strategy.

I didnt play OP this year but it seems like many of the the shippers that have done well there (claiming types) seem to be under-performing when going elsewhere....or the other extreme,horses who showed almost nothing at OP can be a threat for a complete form-reversal.
It backs up what you said,seems like many were geared up just for that meet,and it was so tough it almost makes me want to look past any races there for a lot of horses.
