Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Fri 3.15.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 3/15/21 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 7 |
| Race overview | A modest 16k N2L for 3up fm/s going 1 1/16 miles on Tapeta. |
| Pace | There’s not a ton here, which makes #2 CALMING SEA (9-5) mighty tough on or just off the early lead. |
| Trends | Speed routing on Tapeta isn’t as lethal as it is sprinting, though it’s never a bad thing to have a tactical edge on your opponents. |
| Best Play | #2 CALMING SEA (9-5): Unlucky filly was best two-back when DQ’d then got caught up chasing hot splits last time, but she won’t have to work as hard up front today, and new trainer Breen is 22% OTC, and reaches for main man Paco as well. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP POD (through 3/10): 61-17-10-10 ($1.69/$4.86)
