Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sun 2.18.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 2/18/2024 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 8 |
| Race overview | A solid 25k N3L for f/ms going 1-mile on the turf. |
| Pace | There’s longshot speed from #4 Passionfortreasure (30-1), which should allow #2 MUSICAL ROMANCE (9-5) to sit a perfect first-run stalking trip. |
| Trends | Speed is always dangerous on a firm turf course, as it tends to carry horses up front, and make life difficult on the closers as well. |
| Best Play | #2 MUSICAL ROMANCE (9-5) (turf only): Versatile sort can lead or stalk, and with the longshot speed in here, it’s the latter, which will give her first run, and the cutback, after tiring last time, is perfect as well. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the Late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP POD (through 2/4): 39-12-6-6 ($1.90/$4.87)
GP meet (through 2/4): 444-113-77-53 ($1.44/$4.56)
