Trainer micro-bursts are the latest trend to follow. They occur in shorter spans than 90 days.

Brendan Walsh is 19-10-2-2 at Ellis Park since the meet started.

As documented here, Todd Pletcher started the Sar/BAQ summer ICE Cold.

Friday, he won at 7-1. Sunday he was 2 for 2. His past 5 days he is: 8-3-1-1.

Prior to Friday, he was: 51-1-5-10.

Whether he goes on a run like he did to end the Sar meet like last year with a near 50% streak (like Walsh, like Casse at OP to start their meet) remains to be seen. But worth paying very close attention to at this point.

And obviously, "is he getting new tops?" with these horses matters to handicappers using speed figures. You have been potentially warned if he takes off now.
