Date  1/19/2024 
   
Featured track  Gulfstream Park 
   
Race number  2 
   
Race overview  A relatively meek 12.5k MCL for 3yos going 1 1/16 miles on Tapeta. 
   
Pace  It should be honest, as there are several who wants to be close early, and who are also coming out of sprints as well. 
   
Trends  Tactical speed usually does well routing on Tapeta, though if the rains come, things can tighten up and from more towards the front, and play inside as well. 
   
Best Play  #7 BATTLE OF DOVER (5-2): Stalker was a troubled 2nd last time, yet beaten just a nose, while 2 ½ lengths clear of his main rival (#4 T B Twelve Always: 3-1), so with clear sailing, he should be tough against a group like this. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP and single in the early Pk5, and to kick off the early Pk4 as well.
