Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sat 1.13.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 1/13/2024 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 6 |
| Race overview | A seemingly solid MSW for newly turned 3yos at 6Fs on the main. |
| Pace | There’s a slew of firsters here, and several who have worked fast, so things should be hot and contested early on. |
| Trends | Speed plays sprinting on the main, so you need to be close early, as horses just don’t make up a lot of ground in the lane. |
| Best Play | #5 TURN UP THE TREES (2-1): Pletcher firster has worked huge for this, highlighted by a visually impressive dusting of an unraced stablemate 12/28, when his acceleration was instant, and this middle post should give JV plenty of options as well. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet while getting some added value by singling in the horizontal exotics, and to kick off the Rainbow 6 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP POD (through 1/7): 21-5-4-2 ($1.71/$4.41)
GP meet (through 1/7): 248-64-47-30 ($1.45/$4.60)
