Play of the Day – June 16th 2022
| Play of the Day | |
| Race Date | June 16, 2022 |
| Track | Churchill Downs |
| Race | 8 |
| Overview | A solid MSW for FMs going a mile, in a field where several have shown talent, though #2 SUNNY RIVER (5-2) has the biggest upside, and room for improvement. |
| Pace | It doesn’t look overly hot, but it should be honest, as there are a few here stretching out from quick sprints, which means they’ll be closer early. |
| Trends | Inside speed was strong all last week, so keep a close eye on the proceedings, especially since every race is on dirt now. |
| Best Bet | SUNNY RIVER |
| Number | 2 |
| Morning Line | (5-2) |
| Best Bet Overview | #2 SUNNY RIVER (5-2): Juddmonte homebred had a trip in her debut 2nd, as she broke from the outside post of 10, was slow into stride, and then was 7-W on the far turn, so off that experience builder, she should be tighter—and closer early—today. |
| Picks & Plays | Aggressive WP bet and single to end the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Stats | CD Meet (POD): 21-6-2-2 ($2.72/$5.41 through 6/5) CD Meet (overall): 226-66-39-29 ($1.71/$5.22 through 6/5) |
