Wind Ops

As with anything trainer related, some are better than others, and that appears to be true in terms of knowing when to perform a wind op – that can be linked to the processes they use to identify issues, the skills of their jockey/work riders, and no doubt their vets. Some trainers prefer to have their horses ready to roll after their op, no excuses, others less so – it can be best to catch them on the second run after a wind op for example – both because the horse may be fitter, and the horse itself knows it can now breathe.
