PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  6/28/24 
   
Featured track  Churchill Downs 
   
Race number  5 
   
Race overview  A deep and competitive 50k starter-allowance for 3up at 6 ½ Fs on the main track. 
   
Pace  Simply put, there’s a ton of it here, as more than a few want to be involved early and often, which says the winner is coming from off-the-pace. 
   
Trends  The main track has been remarkably consistent all meet, with few, if any path biases, and all running styles having a fair go of it more often than not. 
   
Best Play  #2 CHANCE (7-2): Stretch runner has been firing while finishing behind some very fast winners for this level, but seemingly gets all the best of it here with what looks like a wild pace to run into. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet and single to end the early Pk5/Pk4, in the late Pk5, and to kick off the late Pk4 as well.
