PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  3/29/24
   
Featured track  Gulfstream Park 
   
Race number  4 
   
Race overview  A strong 50k starter-allowance for 4up going 1-mile on the turf. 
   
Pace  There’s no real true speedsters entered, though more than a few want to be close early on. 
   
Trends  A firm, fast turf course is going to play to speed, so, at the very least, you need to have the ability to lay close early, as turf routes aren’t usually run from the back.  
   
Best Play  #6 BROKEN SPUR (5-2) (turf only): Versatile sort can be placed anywhere, as he’s got plenty of speed, and note he’s proven at this level (which several here can’t say), and that run two-back came off a long layoff, which means he’ll be primed for this. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. 
   
Play of the Day Winners  GP POD (through 3/24): 70-21-11-11 ($2.11 /$5.24)
