Good works - my favorite handicapping point. The speed of the workout is not as important as when he worked. Before a sprint it is ideal to have 3 works of 4 furlongs one week apart. If a horse is worked five furlongs before races it is a good chance he will come out the gate hard.

likes distance - some horses sprint some like long distance

this horse really likes track - some tracks are different as Colonial Downs has a really big track and great turf.
jock - trainer combo - trainers usually have a favorite jockey they give him/her the good mounts. They do that because sometimes they need a favor (bad horse that needs a jock or good horse that needs to be pulled up).
