Nadeau: Ellis Play of the Day Sunday 6.18.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 6/18/2023 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Ellis Park – Race 2 |
| Race overview: | A very deep and competitive 25k claimer going a mile on the main, in a race where everyone can win, but it’s #1 ON A SPREE (3-1) who enters off a powerhouse win and now goes OTC for Sharp. |
| Pace: | Expect a compact group early, as there doesn’t appear to be any true speed, and a few of these might struggle to go this far as well, which might temper the enthusiasm early. |
| Trends: | They’ve only switched to The Pea Patch for two days of racing, and last Sunday was run over a very sloppy track, so let’s take a wait-and-see approach before determining how things might be playing. |
| Best Play: | #1 ON A SPREE (3-1): Class riser has aired in two straight and now goes OTC for Sharp (13%), who has been having a strong season in Kentucky, and looks like he’s got this one at the right time too. |
| Bet Types: | Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5 and to kick off the early Pk4 as well. |
| Meet/POD Stats: | ElP Meet: N/A
ElP POD: N/A
