“PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                  
Date 6/13/26
Featured track Churchill Downs
Race number 8
Race overview A deep and competitive 62.5k claimer for 4up at 7 ½ furlongs.
Pace It looks on the tepid side, as there are no confirmed front runners signed on, so expect a tight pack that will sprint off the far turn.
Trends The main track continued to play on the fair side for the first two days of the week, with winners coming from everywhere.
Best Play #9 ZAMBEZI (8-5): Maker charge has been in good form in three starts off-the-claim without winning, but he romped (in the slop) the last time he was at CD in November, and his two-turn foundation should play well here in what is a demanding one-turn trip.
Bet Types Aggressive WP bet, while getting some added value by singling in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well.
