Nadeau: Churchill Play of the Day Wed 6.25.25
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 6/25/25 |
| Featured track | Churchill Downs |
| Race number | 3 |
| Race overview | An extremely deep and competitive 32k claimer for 4up at 1 1/16 miles on the main track. |
| Pace | It looks very modest, as there aren’t many here who want to go, so owning some tactical speed, at the very least, seems imperative. |
| Trends | The track continues to play fair, with winners coming from all over, though a drying out main track can play to outside stalker/closers. |
| Best Play | #2 TIGER MOON (3-1): Veteran closed from well back to beat lesser last time and did it from a terrible draw, with a slow start, and a world of trouble too, and he’s now off the Hartman claim (23%), should be a lot closer early with this better post and an alert beginning, and therefore looks primed on the rise. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | CD POD: 29-9-1-8 ($1.68/$5.18 ROI through 6/22)
