Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sat 2.1.25
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 2/1/25 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 5 |
| Race overview | A deep and competitive MSW for 3yos a 1 1/16 miles on Tapeta |
| Pace | There’s a full field of 10 here, including several first-time starters, so things should be honest up front. |
| Trends | Tapeta routes are a bit faired, in terms of running styles, as stalker/closers have a much better chance, as opposed to sprinting. |
| Best Play | #8 ONRUSH (5-1): The dirt didn’t work at all last time but the Tapeta route debut at Woodbine was big, he drew perfectly, has a running style to be close early, and meets several who are question marks over the surface. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet, and single to end the early Pk5/Pk4, in the middle Pk5, and to kick off the middle Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP Meet: 398-97-75-59 ($1.74/$4.93 ROI through 1/26)
GP POD: 38-9-8-4 ($1.40/$4.87 ROI through 1/26)
