Play of the Day – February 21st 2021

Play of the Day Race Date February 21, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 5 Overview A short SAL field without much to it, and if #4 DON’T GET KHOZY (2-1) runs any of her last few, she should wallop. Pace It looks contested, as #2 and #6 will go, and maybe #1 and #5 will as well, which means things could fall apart in the lane. Trends #4 DON’T GET KHOZY (2-1): Stalker just looks like a better horse than she meets here, and the race flow suits her as well. Best Bet DON’T GET KHOZY Number 4 Morning Line (2-1) Best Bet Overview #4 DON’T GET KHOZY…

Play of the Day – February 20th 2021

Play of the Day Race Date February 20, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 6 Overview A short field of AOC’s that aren’t overly inspiring, and #6 SOUTH SEA (3-1), who exits a really strong and fast 2nd against lesser, but looks poised to handle the (perceived) class rise. Pace It looks honest, with a few inside who will be involved, which only helps the tactical #6 SOUTH SEA (3-1), who draws the perfect outside attack post. Trends There have been very few days during the meet where the main track hasn’t been fair, though showing speed—especially in sprints—is never a bad thing. Best Bet SOUTH SEA Number 6…

Play of the Day Race Date February 19, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A modest 16k N2L where the favorites are pretty tough to trust. Pace It looks basically non-existent, so expect a tight group and a frantic sprint finish. Trends The turf has played fair throughout the meet, though tactical speed is never a bad thing when it’s on the firm side. Best Bet COOPER Number 1 Morning Line (8-1) Best Bet Overview #1 COPPER (8-1) (turf only): Stabbing a bit, but this one looked good breaking his maiden last time, drew best of all, and isn’t that far behind the favorites, with upside too.…

Play of the Day Race Date February 17, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 9 Overview A modest 50k SAL with several interesting price possibilities, especially since the favorites aren’t that overwhelming on paper.

Trends The turf has played fair throughout the meet, though tactical speed is never a bad thing when it’s on the firm side. Best Bet Number 4 Morning Line (10-1) Best Bet Overview #4 GAMBLING CAT (10-1) (turf only): A bit of a stab but the value is right, the field is there for the taking, and this…

Play of the Day Race Date February 14, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 3 Overview A relatively weak 35k starter-allowance, with several entering with suspect turf sprint form. Pace It should be honest, though not overly fast, and going this short (5Fs) that favors those with speed. Trends The turf has played fair throughout the meet, though tactical speed is never a bad thing when it’s on the firm side. Best Bet MONTE NE Number 7 Morning Line N/A Best Bet Overview #7 MONTE NE (turf or dirt): Pace presser drew perfect for his style, was a good 2nd on the turf two-back, and now runs on the…

Play of the Day Race Date February 13, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A modest turf MSW with few winning contenders, at least from those who have raced on turf.

Play of the Day – February 11th 2021

Play of the Day Race Date February 11, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 7 Overview A decent SAL, but one loaded with early speed, which should set it up for #3 SERENADE A KITTEN (3-1). Pace It looks hot and contested, with several who want to be involved early, which means #3 SERENADE A KITTEN (3-1), who stalked last time, should be in the perfect spot off the far turn. Trends The turf has played fair throughout the meet, though tactical speed is never a bad thing when it’s on the firm side. Best Bet SERENADE A KITTEN Number 3 Morning Line (3-1) Best Bet Overview #3 SERENADE…

Play of the Day – February 10th 2021

Play of the Day Race Date February 10, 2021 Track Gulfstream Park Race 5 Overview A pretty weak 35k claimer, with a potential standout. Pace The pace is lacking, which flatters #6 CAPTAIN RON (5-2), who also has Lopez, and therefore figures to be involved throughout. Trends The turf has played fair throughout the meet, though tactical speed is never a bad thing when it’s on the firm side. Best Bet CAPTAIN RON Number 6 Morning Line (5-2) Best Bet Overview #6 CAPTAIN RON (5-2): Shows by far the best overall form, and should be a lot closer after a slow beginning last time.
