Churchil Downs Play of the Day Thursday 11.24.22
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 11/24/2022 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Churchill Downs – Race 11 |
| Race overview: | A solid field for the G3 Cardinal going 1 1/8 miles on the turf, with G1 winner #5 Dalika (2-1) leading the way over several graded stakes quality runners. |
| Pace: | It looks hot and contested between the two favorites, as both #5 Dalika (2-1) and #6 Adventuring (9-5) want to be involved early and often, and could tangle, being drawn next to each other. |
| Trends: | N/A |
| Best Play: | #7 SUNNY ONE (8-1) (turf only): Stalker/closer has run well of late, with fast figures too, and wasn’t far behind Dalika at KD, and today she’ll get a much better pace scenario to rally into. |
| Bet Types: | WPS bet and a must-use in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Meet/POD Stats: | CD Meet: 136-35-26-22 ($1.82/$5.37 ROI through 11/20)
CD POD: 12-4-2-0 ($1.87/$4.81 ROI through 11/20)
