Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sunday 12.31.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 12/31/2023 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 5 |
| Race overview | A modest 50k MOC for 2yos going 1 1/16 miles on the turf. |
| Pace | There’s not much here, aside from #10 Street Earnings (3-1), who should clear, though #6 MARCEAU (2-1) won’t let him get too far away early. |
| Trends | Speed on the turf has been tough to reel in, and even though there’s been plenty of rain recently, things should be on the firmer side by Saturday afternoon. |
| Best Play | #6 MARCEAU (2-1) (turf only): Tagg runner ran well on Tapeta last time but wants turf, and his only start was an MSW in NY, so this is a seismic drop, in a race where there’s little turf form. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single to end the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP POD (through 12/26): 13-3-2-1 ($1.82/$4.33)
GP meet (through 12/26): 159-41-31-18 ($1.46/$4.61)
