All you have to do is look at the trainer stats. BRIS PPs lists the trainer as 0/19 off this type of layoff. That shows us the trainer is more interested in giving the horse a race off a layoff than winning off the layoff. Now there are always exceptions, but it's best to avoid a horse that is in a category that the trainer has a low win % in. You have to get sufficient odds to buck a trend and 8/1 wasn't enough in this race.
