Gandalf & Mike-
Thanks for the responses- this is helpful. I'm still not the best with class.
I think my thought was "Should I be concerned that he's going from a 60K OC race to an unrestricted claiming race?." Won at 40K OC territory... was wondering why the trainer wouldn't go for a cheaper OC claiming race- like the one in May 2014. I've been getting pretty good with fractions & pace- but I do get burned from time to time by mis-evaluating moves in class. For example- I'll label a class drop as "Suspicious" when in reality it's a logical drop in class.
On second look (I was up pretty late handicapping), 2 races back was a NX-3 and the last race was unrestricted.
