Default Serious question

A public handicapper who says something like this......

Finished 2nd last time and coming off enough speed to upset the favorite of 4f at 48.57.

What does that mean?

Finished 2nd last trip out at Belmont and coming off a rocket workout of 4f at 46.63 to put away the rest early.

I think he is only asking what that stuff means, not it's worth.
