Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Sun 3.17.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 3/17/21 |
| Featured track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race number | 8 |
| Race overview | A modest 25k claimer for 4up f/ms going 1 1/16 miles on turf. |
| Pace | It looks honest enough, as there are a few who want to be involved early, though don’t expect things to be too heated up front. |
| Trends | You better have tactical speed at the very least on turf, especially when it’s fast and firm, as races are rarely won from the back. |
| Best Play | #8 DONTMESSWITHTESS (9-5): Stalker wasn’t given a chance last time when she wasn’t beaten much with plenty of trouble, now gets Irad, and has the speed to lay close and get first run off the far turn. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive win bet and single in the late Pk5, and to kick off the Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | GP POD (through 3/10): 61-17-10-10 ($1.69/$4.86)
