PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                  
Date 6/20/26
Featured track Churchill Downs
Race number 3
 
Race overview A very solid restricted MSW for fm3up at 7 ½ furlongs.
 
Pace It’s a full field, with more than a few who want to be close early, so things look honest up front.
Trends The main track continues to play on the fair side, and even had a slight off-the-pace feel to it over the weekend.
Best Play #4 PASSIONFRUIT (4-1): Stretch runner closed nicely to be 2nd in her debut, figures a little tighter early on off that experience builder, and has as much upside as anyone here.
Bet Types Aggressive WP bet, and single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well.
