Nadeau: Play of the Day CD Fri 9.19.25
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 9/19/25 |
| Featured track | Churchill Downs |
| Race number | 6 |
| Race overview | A wildly deep and competitive 16k claimer for fm3up at 6 ½ Fs. |
| Pace | There’s not much here, which means #6 ALTERED SHOT (5-1) should enjoy a big tactical edge, either on, or just off the early pace. |
| Trends | A fast main track played very fair the first three days of the meet (it was sloppy Sunday), and again on Wednesday as well. |
| Best Play | #6 ALTERED SHOT (5-1): Class dropper and cutback mare goes for Kantarmaci, who already popped with a POD winner Opening Weekend and it looks like he brought a group intent on doing damage in these lower-level claiming races, and while this ML is a joke, she still looks good in the 5-2 range. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single to kick off the late Pk5 as well. |
