PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  12/12/24 
   
Featured track  Gulfstream Park 
   
Race number  8 
   
Race overview  A competitive OC/SAL for 2yos at 5Fs on the Tapeta. 
   
Pace  it should be honest enough, as there are more than a few who want to be involved early. 
   
Trends  Tapeta sprints are typically won by those with tactical speed, at the very least, with outside paths preferred, as the inside can bog down. 
   
Best Play  #3 GHOSTLY ROSE (5-2): Class dropper has been facing tons better on both turf and Tapeta, so this reduced group will be to his liking, and with an expected honest pace up front, that should only flatter him in the lane. 
    
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well.
