Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sun 1.29.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 1/29/2023 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Gulfstream Park – Race 11 |
| Race overview: | A wildly competitive MSW routing on the turf—that just so happens to end the mandatory payoff Rainbow 6 as well. |
| Pace: | It looks on the tepid side, as there’s not much confirmed speed on paper, so laying close seems imperative. |
| Trends: | You want to be close on the turf, as horses just won’t close from too far back if they aren’t in contention entering the far turn. |
| Best Play: | #9 MRS. ASTOR (5-1): Exits a nightmare trip (that somehow was unnoted in the chart) where she had a ton of run but just couldn’t show it, and now with Jose Ortiz aboard, it’s go-time. |
| Bet Types: | Aggressive WP bet and single to end the late Pk5/Pk4, and the mandatory Rainbow 6 as well. |
| Meet/POD Stats: | GP Champ. Meet: 153-33-27-26 ($1.49/$4.58 through 1/15)
GP Champ. Meet POD: 16-7-4-3 ($2.71/$7.56 through 1/15)
