  “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/19/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  2       Race overview  A relatively modest 17.5k MCL for 3yofs at 7 ½ Fs on turf.       Pace  It looks honest enough, as there are more than a few who want to be involved early.      Trends  Speed has been lethal on turf, seemingly no matter how fast they go early, which again means you need to be close.      Best Play  #9 APOCALYPTIC (2-1) (turf only): Stuff class dropper goes for a Sweezey barn that has done little wrong…

“PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/13/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  3       Race overview  A modest 8k claimer for 3upfm sprinting 5 ½ Fs on Tapeta.       Pace  There’s not much here, which flatters the chances of #4 ONE SMOKIN’ RITA (9-5), who could shake loose early.      Trends  Speed is tough sprinting on Tapeta, as they tend to carry their speed, often no matter how quick they go early.      Best Play  #4 ONE SMOKIN’ RITA (9-5): Pace player was just 2nd at the level last time after pressing the early…

  “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/12/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  5       Race overview  A competitive 17.5k claimer for 3yofs at 6Fs on the main track.       Pace  It looks honest enough on paper, as there are more than a few who want to be involved early.      Trends  Speed tends to have the best of it sprinting on the main track, as races rarely fall apart in the lane, so at the very least, you need to have some tactical zip.      Best Play  #4 KISS CAM (8-5): Sweezey charge…

  “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/9/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  2       Race overview  A deep and competitive MSW for 3yofs going 1-mile on turf.       Pace  There’s not much here on paper, which means stretchout sprinter 4 BUNRATTY MANOR (9-2) may shake loose and get brave.      Trends  The turf continues to play to speed, seemingly no matter how fast they go early, so at the very least, you better be able to lay close.      Best Play  #4 BUNRATTY MANOR (9-2) (turf only): Sprinter stretches out and tries two…

  “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/8/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  9       Race overview  A solid AOC for Florida-bred 4upfm going 7Fs on the main track.       Pace  It looks honest enough on paper, as there are a few on the inside who want to be involved early.      Trends  Speed tends to have the best of it sprinting on the main track, as races rarely fall apart in the lane, though at a more demanding 7Fs, things can temper a bit.      Best Play  #8 EMIRATES AFFAIR (5-2): Stalker aired…

  “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                        Date  3/7/25      Featured track  Gulfstream Park      Race number  6       Race overview  A relatively modest 17.5k MCL for 3upfm at 1m 70 yards on Tapeta.       Pace  There’s not much on paper, so expect a tight pack early that will turn into a sprint off the far turn.      Trends  Tapeta routes tend to play to stalker/closers, as it’s much more difficult to wire going long, than it is going short.      Best Play  #2 SAINT CHAPELLE (2-1): Stalker didn’t break and was too far back last time, but…
