Nadeau: Play of the Day KEE 10.18.26
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | ||
| Date | 10/18/26 | |
| Featured track | Keeneland | |
| Race number | 7 | |
| Race overview | A relatively modest renewal of the G3 Dowager for fm3up at 1 ½ miles on the turf. | |
| Pace | It’s a marathon, so they’ll be crawling, especially since there will be give in the ground too, so expect this to turn into a sprint off the far turn, with preference to those who can lay close and get first run. | |
| Trends | The turf has been used sparingly, with all the bad weather, and will have plenty of give to it as well. | |
| Best Play | #9 SPEED SHOPPER (7-2) (turf only): Versatile filly will be close but not on the lead, which gives er a huge edge here, plus she’s 1-for-1 over the course and 2-for-4 at the distance, while catching a ML favorite (#5 Fionn) who just doesn’t seem the same this year. | |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet, and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. | |
