PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  6/14/25 
   
Featured track  Churchill Downs  
   
Race number  6 
   
Race overview  A deep and competitive 50k claimer for 3up at 1-mile. 
   
Pace  It looks hot and contested, as basically everyone entered wants to go early, so anyone who can rate gets a big edge. 
   
Trends  The main track was fair and even seemed on Wednesday, and, for the most part, has been throughout the meet (when fast). 
   
Best Play  #5 CRUSHED IT (5-1): Expected stalker makes his first start for DeVaux (12% with barn newcomers), which is a big upgrade, and while his big figures ere at Delta, this is a perfect spot to make a dent, and it’s an aggressive one for his new barn too. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet and single in the middle Pk4, and to kick off the middle Pk5 as well.
