Some of them win--at huge prices. Being back to the races quickly can be a sign a trainer has a horse ready to win--and wants to get him out on the track as soon as possible.
Or--it could just be another trainer willing to try anything to get his horse to run, or to confuse bettors--who knows? I do know they can't be bet blind, that's for sure.
I came up with a way to screen these horses--at least for competent connections: By requiring either TRAINER OR JOCKEY win at least 20%--one or the other. That HAS to cut down on the dreamers--and leave more serious contenders.
At least it sounds good. I didn't require any odds at all--just the horse must be back in 9 days or less--and Trainer or Jockey win 20+%.
These are what I found today---we'll see how they do.

Didn't have any big winners to report yesterday--so here's an update on the
"HURRY BACK" spot play:
7 PLAYS and looky-here, a $40 winner! Wish I had bet!
That calls for more study--be back in a few with todays HURRY BACK qualifiers.
