Play of the Day Race Date January 08, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 10 Overview A competitive AOC sprinting on the dirt, and there are several different ways you can go, but #5 PSYCHIC ABILITY (7-2) returns first-time Joseph and may be ready to freak.

Trends The main track is always going to tilt towards speed, though it hasn’t been unfair during the meet and, for the most part, horses have been able to come from anywhere to…

Play of the Day Race Date January 07, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 5 Overview A very solid Florida-bred N1X on the Tapeta, though class dropper #3 SOUPER LEGACY (7-2) looks like he has a big edge. Pace On paper there’s very little here, so tactical speed should be at a premium, as this might turn into a 3F sprint entering the far turn. Trends The Tapeta has been relatively fair and horses have wired sprinting, though overall outside stalkers have been a bit better. Best Bet SOUPER LEGACY Number 3 Morning Line (7-2) Best Bet Overview #3 SOUPER LEGACY (7-2): WO invader is proven over Tapeta, has…

Pace There are others who ant to be close early but #1 QUICK TEMPO (4-1) is freakishly fast and knows only one way to go.

Play of the Day Race Date January 02, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 6 Overview A solid state-bred N1X on the Tapeta, though #4 SPECTACULAR GIRL (2-1) may hold an edge with a 2-for-2 local edge.

Play of the Day Race Date January 01, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 8 Overview A deep and competitive N2L on the Tapeta, though none have the upside of #6 ASKEW (9-2). Pace Expect this to play like a turf race, as there’s little speed on paper, so a 3-furlong sprint figures to ensue off the far turn. Trends The broad Tapeta profile has been outside stalkers, but nothing in terms of a bias, as winners have come from everywhere. Best Bet ASKEW Number 6 Morning Line (9-2) Best Bet Overview #6 ASKEW (9-2): Lightly raced runner didn’t fire sprinting on the dirt on debut then got to…

Play of the Day Race Date December 31, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 4 Overview A solid MSW on the Tapeta that could go many different ways.

Best Bet SCARABEA Number 1 Morning Line (4-1) Best Bet Overview #1 SCARABEA (4-1): Turfway invader faced males last time going longer and ran huge, so this is a drop, and the cutback works too, as she has plenty of foundation for the…

Play of the Day Race Date December 30, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A modest AOC on Tapeta that has a few question marks, and #1 PEARLESCENT (9-5), who is 2-for-2 over the surface.

Play of the Day Race Date December 24, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 10 Overview A solid renewal of the 2-mile Jerkens, with several who have a winning chance, though all but one looks severely pace compromised. Pace There’s absolutely none here, which means #3 ABAAN (4-1) is as loose as Saez wants him to be, and not only is he loose, but his main rivals don’t have a hint of early foot. Trends They just haven’t run enough races on the turf to get a real feel, but being close—or loose in front—is never a bad thing. Best Bet ABAAN Number 3 Morning Line (4-1) Best Bet…
