PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  10/25/24 
   
Featured track  Keeneland  
   
Race number  5 
   
Race overview  An extremely deep and competitive N1X for 3up at 1 3/16 miles on the turf. 
   
Pace  Things looks on the slow side, as there aren’t too many who want to go early, and this is at an elongated distance as well, which means things figure to crawl along early. 
   
Trends  N/A 
   
Best Play  #3 VESTURE (9-2) (turf only): Mott runner has the speed to lead this but isn’t a run-off type, exits a strong 2nd at KD at this trip, which should give him a world of foundation here, and looks poised for a breakthrough as well. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet and a must-use/potential leverage single to end the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. 
   
Play of the Day Winners  Kee POD: 12-3-1-1 ($1.55/$3.90 through 10/20)
