| Play of the Day | |
| Race Date | December 10, 2021 |
| Track | Gulfstream Park |
| Race | 7 |
| Overview | A stakes-caliber AOC with a G1 winner (#5 Drain the Clock 8-5) and several others who have shown a high degree of talent. |
| Pace | It looks borderline supersonic, as several, including the heavy favorite, want to roll early. |
| Trends | The main track has tilted towards speeds, which is the norm, so you need to be tactical at the very least. |
| Best Bet | NOCTURNAL |
| Number | 1 |
| Morning Line | (5-2) |
| Best Bet Overview | #1 NOCTURNAL (5-2): Pletcher returnee hasn’t been out since February but is long on talent and all three races have been here (3-2-1-0), and while this is a bit short, he’s trained forwardly and should relish all the heat up front, while meeting a favorite who looks vulnerable from the pace, and the fact he’s meeting elders for the first time as well. |
| Picks & Plays | Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Stats | GP Meet (POD): 3-1-1-0 ($2.53/$6.47 ROI through 12/5) GP Meet (overall): 33-5-5-3 ($0.98/$3.70 ROI through 12/5) |
