Play of the Day Race Date January 15, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 1 Overview A competitive 25k MCL on the Tapeta, with several in with a chance. Pace It doesn’t look overly fast, so tactical speed should be at a premium. Trends The Tapeta has been a bit fairer of late, tough outside stalkers/closers seem to get a slight edge. Best Bet TRAVEL GUIDE Number 4 Morning Line (4-1) Best Bet Overview #4 TRAVEL GUIDE (4-1): MSW dropped goes for a Sisterson barn that’s having a good meet and is really good at spotting its stock, and is 5-for-15 on the drop into the MCL ranks.

Play of the Day Race Date January 14, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 9 Overview A solid AOC for Florida breds, though #5 AMERICAN OF COURSE (9-5) looks primed off a sharp return.

Best Bet AMERICAN OF COURSE Number 5 Morning Line (9-5) Best Bet Overview #5 AMERICAN OF COURSE (9-5): Exits a big comeback 3rd after chasing early, in a race where things fell apart late, and there’s no reason she won’t move forward second-off the extended layoff.

Play of the Day Race Date January 13, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 3 Overview A solid N2L on the Tapeta with several different possibilities for a slice, though #1 CHAO (5-2) draws best of all and looks too tough for these. Pace It looks honest enough, as there are more than a few who like to be close to the pace. Trends The Tapeta has turned a bit speedier of late, though outside stalkers are typically the way to go. Best Bet CHAO Number 1 Morning Line (5-2) Best Bet Overview #1 CHAO (5-2): Saffie runner drew perfectly and is tactical enough to sit just off the…

Play of the Day Race Date January 12, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 9 Overview A wide-open state-bred allowance on the Tapeta, with several favorites who are slow and tough to trust.

Best Bet ARROW SHAPE Number 2 Morning Line (10-1) Best Bet Overview #2 ARROW SHAPE (10-1): Lightly raced runner really took to the surface last time with a fast run, has a ton of upside, and should…

Play of the Day Race Date January 09, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 6 Overview A deep starter-optional claimer, though #5 BORN A GAMBLER (2-1) draws much better than last time, adds Lasix, and should improve second-off the claim. Pace Expect this to play like a turf race, as there’s no pace here, which suggests it will be a 3F sprint late.

Play of the Day Race Date January 08, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 10 Overview A competitive AOC sprinting on the dirt, and there are several different ways you can go, but #5 PSYCHIC ABILITY (7-2) returns first-time Joseph and may be ready to freak. Pace It should be honest enough, as there are a few here who want to go early, and several others who don’t want to be too far out if it. Trends The main track is always going to tilt towards speed, though it hasn’t been unfair during the meet and, for the most part, horses have been able to come from anywhere to…

Play of the Day Race Date January 07, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 5 Overview A very solid Florida-bred N1X on the Tapeta, though class dropper #3 SOUPER LEGACY (7-2) looks like he has a big edge. Pace On paper there’s very little here, so tactical speed should be at a premium, as this might turn into a 3F sprint entering the far turn.

Best Bet SOUPER LEGACY Number 3 Morning Line (7-2) Best Bet Overview #3 SOUPER LEGACY (7-2): WO invader is proven over Tapeta, has…

Play of the Day Race Date January 06, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 10 Overview A modest MCL on Tapeta, with all the proven runners looking slow, and a likely hot firster for potent connections that should be tough. Pace There are a few here who want to be involved but expect #2 LEE ANN’S ARRIOR (3-1) to motor early, as his works are sharp and Irad lands here for a potent Rivelli barn. Trends The Tapeta has been relatively fair and horses have wired sprinting, though overall outside stalkers have been a bit better. Best Bet LEE ANN’S WARRIOR Number 2 Morning Line (3-1) Best Bet Overview…

Play of the Day Race Date January 05, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 9 Overview A deep and competitive AOC for older sprinting on the turf, in a race you could go any number of different ways. Pace There are others who ant to be close early but #1 QUICK TEMPO (4-1) is freakishly fast and knows only one way to go. Trends They haven’t run a ton of races on turf, so there’s no real profile, though speed is never a bad thing—especially going this short. Best Bet QUICK TEMPO Number 1 Morning Line (4-1) Best Bet Overview #1 QUICK TEMPO (4-1) (turf only): Speedster cuts back…

Play of the Day Race Date January 02, 2022 Track Gulfstream Park Race 6 Overview A solid state-bred N1X on the Tapeta, though #4 SPECTACULAR GIRL (2-1) may hold an edge with a 2-for-2 local edge.
