PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  1/13/2024 
   
Featured track  Gulfstream Park 
   
Race number  6 
   
Race overview  A seemingly solid MSW for newly turned 3yos at 6Fs on the main. 
   
Pace  There’s a slew of firsters here, and several who have worked fast, so things should be hot and contested early on. 
   
Trends  Speed plays sprinting on the main, so you need to be close early, as horses just don’t make up a lot of ground in the lane. 
   
Best Play  #5 TURN UP THE TREES (2-1): Pletcher firster has worked huge for this, highlighted by a visually impressive dusting of an unraced stablemate 12/28, when his acceleration was instant, and this middle post should give JV plenty of options as well. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet while getting some added value by singling in the horizontal exotics, and to kick off the Rainbow 6 as well.
