Horses that run with EPO show the characteristics that you refer too. Another trait they seem to share is their ability to run good numbers for long periods of time. Trainers using the cheaper raceday type stimulants and such rarely get more than two or three good numbers before their charges begin to decline. Generally speaking, I'd be surprised if anyone's using EPO on anything other that top quality stock. The stuff is just too expensive.
However, in terms of that "re-break" running style there was a guy in S Florida this winter who had a slew of cheap claimers jump up like that only to fall off the face of the earth after 3 starts. I have an idea about what he used and it wasn't EPO.
