Play of the Day Race Date December 22, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 6 Overview A compact 16k starter on the Tapeta with a heavy 8-5 ML favorite (#4 Awsum Roar) that never wins, which means an in-form runner like #7 TREVESS (9-2) can take advantage. Pace There’s not much here, which means an aggressive ride by Reyes aboard #7 TREVESS (9-2) will give him a big tactical edge over the favorite. Trends The Tapeta is a bit tough to get a read on, though outside stalkers might get a slight lean. Best Bet TREVESS Number 7 Morning Line (9-2) Best Bet Overview #7 TREVESS (9-2): Got fried…

Play of the Day Race Date December 19, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 8 Overview A solid 16k claimer on the Tapeta, though #1 EMOJI GUY (3-1) looks primed to make it three in a row. Pace There’s not much here, though that doesn’t always mean a whole lot in the Tapeta races, as they can play like turf races off the far turn. Trends The Tapeta is a bit tough to get a read on, though outside stalkers might get a slight lean. Best Bet EMOJI GUY Number 1 Morning Line (3-1) Best Bet Overview #1 EMOJI GUY (3-1): Streaking runner has won two straight and now…

Play of the Day Race Date December 17, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 8 Overview A wildly competitive 50k N2L that could go a number of different ways, though the class drop for #1 EYES ON TARGET (5-1) is a big one. Pace It looks moderate at best, so tactical speed should be placed at a premium. Trends There haven’t been enough turf races carded on a daily basis to get a true feel, though this is a course where speedsters and stalkers are going to do best. Best Bet EYES ON TARGET Number 1 Morning Line (5-1) Best Bet Overview #1 EYES ON TARGET (5-1) (turf or…

Play of the Day Race Date December 16, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 9 Overview A solid Fla-bred AOC, though classer dropper #9 BEFORE YOU (3-1) gets all the best of it. Pace Expect #5 American of Course (4-1) to be on the lead from the inside, which is perfect for #9 BEFORE YOU (3-1), since she’s the other pure speed and is outside, which means she can press and break this open off the far turn. Trends The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, though it has hardly been unfair to others if the flow is right. Best Bet BEFORE YOU Number 9…

Play of the Day Race Date December 15, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 5 Overview A relatively modest N3L, with five of the seven entering off losses, and #6 BABY LION (5-1) looking like the controlling speed. Pace There’s simply no one here to oppose #6 BABY LION (5-1) early, so expect a send mission over a group she should easily clear. Trends The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, though it has hardly been unfair to others if the flow is right. Best Bet BABY LION Number 6 Morning Line (5-1) Best Bet Overview #6 BABY LION (5-1): Expected Lone F just beat…

Play of the Day Race Date December 12, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A very competitive state-bred AOC with several winning possibilities, and plenty offering value as well. Pace It looks supersonic, as there’s a ton in here, especially to the outside, which should flatter #6 GANGLY (6-1), who is one of the few confirmed stalker/closers in the field. Trends The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, though it has hardly been unfair to others if the flow is right. Best Bet GANGLY Number 6 Morning Line (6-1) Best Bet Overview #6 GANGLY (6-1): Off-the-pace sort will get a dream setup here,…

Play of the Day Race Date December 11, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 2 Overview A solid group of veteran 6.25k claimers, though #1 Divert (5-2) could be vulnerable off a sketchy drop, while #2 DIZZY GILESPIE (7-2) looks poised to take a big move forward. Pace There’s no true confirmed front-runner here, so tactical speed will be important, as this could turn into a sprint off the far turn. Trends The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, so you need to be tactical at the very least. Best Bet DIZZY GILESPIE Number 2 Morning Line (7-2) Best Bet Overview #2 DIZZY GILESPIE (7-2):…

Play of the Day Race Date December 10, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A stakes-caliber AOC with a G1 winner (#5 Drain the Clock 8-5) and several others who have shown a high degree of talent. Pace It looks borderline supersonic, as several, including the heavy favorite, want to roll early. Trends The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, so you need to be tactical at the very least. Best Bet NOCTURNAL Number 1 Morning Line (5-2) Best Bet Overview #1 NOCTURNAL (5-2): Pletcher returnee hasn’t been out since February but is long on talent and all three races have been here…

Play of the Day Race Date December 09, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 3 Overview A solid N2L with several possibilities, but #1 SOUPER FORTUNE (7-2) should relish the class drop for a potent synthetic barn. Pace There’s very little here on paper, save #7 Paliza (6-1), so tactical speed seems a necessity. Trends The Tapeta has been tricky, with plowhorse splits in several of the routes, but overall, it seems on the fair side. Best Bet SOUPER FORTUNE Number 1 Morning Line (7-2) Best Bet Overview #1 SOUPER FORTUNE (7-2): Class dropper drew perfectly inside for Trombetta, who is a big 24% on synthetics, and the blinkers…

Play of the Day Race Date December 08, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 3 Overview A weak 12.5k MCL where several are proving to be lifetime maidens, while #6 LEFTHOOKLIGHTSOUT (3-1) goes off the claim after a useful debut. Pace There’s not much on paper, so an aggressive ride should get the lead, and tactical speed would be a bonus too. Trends The main track definitely tilted towards early speed on Opening Weekend, as several winners went wire-to-wire, while many more were close early. Best Bet LEFTHOOKLIGHTSOUT Number 6 Morning Line (3-1) Best Bet Overview #6 LEFTHOOKLIGHTSOUT (3-1): Enters off a decent 4th on debut, after breaking last-of-12…
