Nadeau: Gulfstream Play of the Day Wed 1.18.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 1/18/2023 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Gulfstream Park – Race 2 |
| Race overview: | A relatively weak 12.5k MCL sprinting on the main. |
| Pace: | There’s plenty here, which should only aid the stalking style of #4 TOO MUCH VINO (5-2), who comes in off a strong 2nd off the claim. |
| Trends: | Speed plays on the main, so you need to be close, as horses just don’t make up a ton of ground going this short. |
| Best Play: | #4 TOO MUCH VINO (5-2): Stalker improved (her figure) off the claim and won’t need to do any better to beat this group, and an expected aggressive and contested early pace only flatters her. |
| Bet Types: | Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5, and to kick off the early Pk4 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)
