“PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau

Date 12/9/2023

Featured track Gulfstream Park

Race number 2

Race overview A very strong AOC (25k/N1X) for 3up going 1-mile on the turf.

Pace It looks honest enough, and potentially even a tad fast, as there’s more than a few here who want to be close early on.

Trends It’s very early in the return of the newly rebuilt turf course, with only two days of racing so far, but it’s pretty clear not much will change, and that speed is always going to be an advantage.

Best Play #7 HEADLINE NEWS (6-1) (turf only): Lightly-raced runner beat nothing in his MSW comeback at Laurel but sure did it the right way, levelling off in the lane and galloping, Toner has had a huge past few years here on the turf, and this homebred has more upside than the rest of the field combined.

Bet Types Aggressive WP bet and get some added leverage by singling in the early Pk5, and to kick off the early Pk4 as well.
