PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                  
Date 6/26/26
Featured track Churchill Downs
Race number 3
 
Race overview A compact but solid OC/N1X for 3yo fillies at 1 1/16 miles.
 
Pace It looks a bit on the slow side at this trip, though most entered have enough tactical speed to be close, in what should be a tight pack.
Trends The main track continues to play on the fair side, and even had a slight off-the-pace feel to it on Saturday and Sunday.
Best Play #2 ANSWERED PRAYERS (3-1): Stalker as a big edge on a few here in that she’s been tested (and passed) against winners, as that was a good 2nd last time, and her stalking style will have her close to what figures a modest early pace.
Bet Types Aggressive WP bet, and single in the early Pk5/Pk4, and to kick off the second Pk5 as well.
