Nadeau: Churchill Play of the Day Thurs 9.26.24
“PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
Date | 9/26/24 |
Featured track | Churchill Downs |
Race number | 7 |
Race overview | A seemingly wide-open N1X for 3up at the marathon distance (for the main track) of 1 ¼ miles. |
Pace | Expect things to crawl early, as this is not a distance you see often, and several won’t be able to handle it, which suggests things will be extremely tepid up front. |
Trends | It’s all dirt all the time at the meet, and the main track continues to play fair, as all running styles have had repeatedly won races. |
Best Play | #5 WINSTON WOLF (3-1): Tactical sort has an edge with his running style, as he’ll lay close and get first run, and his CD form is solid as well, which puts him in a good spot over a field that is the definition of a mixed bag. |
Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
Play of the Day Winners | CD POD: 7-3-1-0 ($2.25/$6.31 through 9/22)
