Nadeua Ellis Play of the Day Sat 6.17.23
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date: | 6/17/2023 |
| Featured Track/Race: | Ellis Park – Race 3 |
| Race overview: | A compact and competitive 20k claimer sprinting 6 1/2Fs on the main, with several contenders, though #4 COURTHOUSE COVE (2-1) seemingly holding all the aces. |
| Pace: | It looks honest, though there’s also no real true sprint speed either. |
| Trends: | They’ve only switched to The Pea Patch for two days of racing, and Sunday was run over a very sloppy track, so let’s take a wait-and-see approach before determining how things might be playing. |
| Best Play: | #4 COURTHOUSE COVE (2-1): The best horse enters off a neck 2nd at Kee in fast time and now goes OTC for Wong, a 28% angle, and he doesn’t even need to improve to beat this group. |
| Bet Types: | Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Meet/POD Stats: | ElP Meet: N/A
ElP POD: N/A
