Play of the Day – May 12th 2022
Play of the Day | |
Race Date | May 12, 2022 |
Track | Churchill Downs |
Race | 6 |
Overview | A deep 50k starter-allowance with several ways to go, which means searching for value seems imperative. |
Pace | It seems honest enough, as there are more than a few who want to be involved early, and there’s plenty of stalkers as well. |
Trends | It’s a bit early to gauge the main track and how it’s playing, especially since it took a lot of rain over the first week and wasn’t consistently fast at any one point. |
Best Bet | Mobster Gun |
Number | 1 |
Morning Line | (5-1) |
Best Bet Overview | #1 Mobster Gun (5-1): stalker drew perfectly and should get first run on the speed, plus Sims is a huge 35% 2nd-off this middle layoff, which says this was the spot he had in mind all along. |
Picks & Plays | Aggressive WP bet and a must-use/potential single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
Stats | CD Meet (POD): 6-2-1-1 ($3.40/$7.77 through 5/7 CD Meet (overall): 67-24-13-8 ($$2.14/$6.40 through 5/7) |
