Nadeau: Play of the Day Thurs 3.9.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 3/9/2023 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Gulfstream Park – Race 1 |
| Race overview: | A competitive 16k claimer routing on the turf, with class-dropping #4 SANDPIPER MEMORIES (7-2) looming very large. |
| Pace: | There’s enough here, as more than a few want to be close early, which means a stalking gear should play well. |
| Trends: | You want to be close on the turf, as horses aren’t going to make up a ton of ground if they can’t get into position early. |
| Best Play: | #4 SANDPIPER MEMORIES (7-2) (turf only): Stiff class dropper was facing tons better in a 25k starter last time, and she hardly disgraced herself, son on the drop, with this cozy post and her tactical speed, she should be tough. |
| Bet Types: | Aggressive WP bet at 2-1 or better, while getting some additional value by singling to kick off the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Meet/POD Stats: | GP Champ. Meet: 449-98-88-81 ($1.49/$4.99 ROI through 2/26)
GP Champ. Meet POD: 44-11-10-11 ($1.51/$5.58 through 2/26)
