Maidens 2nd Time Out

[PSH]

In analyzing many of my plays i find that i get burned probably most often playing maidens second time out off of a good (or troubled trip) first time effort. Yesterday, again that happened at Saratoga in the 2nd and 4th races with the Darley horse in the 2nd and Dutrow's horse in the 4th. More often than not these 2nd time outers ran a really nice figure in their first start and are often many points ahead of their competitors from a sheet or beyer standpoint. Obviously, they are well bet second time out and also seem to bounce.....

I guess that happens in youngsters - 2YO and 3YO of age.
My point is more directed at me to stop playing these type of races.
Any one else notice this pattern?
