PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  12/26/2023
   
Featured track  Gulfstream Park 
   
Race number  5 
   
Race overview  A solid AC for f/ms going 1 1/16 miles on the turf. 
   
Pace  It looks like it could be honest, as there are more than a few who want to be close early, though don’t expect it to get too heated. 
   
Trends  Speed has done very well on the turf, so at the very least, a tactical gear is preferred, as horses just aren’t going to come from too far back, unless there’s a real meltdown. 
   
Best Play  #7 CIGAMIA (8-5) (turf only): Class dropper was 4-1 in an Au stakes in her U.S. debut and first start for Motion, so they think quite highly of her, and that close 6th was solid enough, and now she gets Lasix for a confidence boost before likely heading back into stakes company. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive win bet and single to end the early Pk5/Pk4, and to kick off the Rainbow 6 as well.
