Nadeau: Play of the Day 5.25.26 / CD
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | ||
| Date | 5/25/26 | |
| Featured track | Churchill Downs | |
| Race number | 9 | |
| Race overview | A muddled full field in an MSW for 3up at 1 1/16 miles on the turf. | |
| Pace | There’s 12 here, so you’d think things will be honest up front. | |
| Trends | There’s really nothing to go on here, as they use the turf course sparingly, and it’s taken some rain during the week as well. | |
| Best Play | #8 ZIHNAL (7-2) (turf or dirt): Has this homebred as the BB in a Laurel stakes on Preakness Weekend but he scratched to run here, and with a big turf pedigree, off a wildly fast 4th on the main track at SA (against older) on 4/2, he figures primed for this. | |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet, and single to end ALL the horizonal exotics as well. | |
