Play of the Day
Race Date June 16, 2022
Track Churchill Downs
Race 8
Overview A solid MSW for FMs going a mile, in a field where several have shown talent, though #2 SUNNY RIVER (5-2) has the biggest upside, and room for improvement.
Pace It doesn’t look overly hot, but it should be honest, as there are a few here stretching out from quick sprints, which means they’ll be closer early.
Trends Inside speed was strong all last week, so keep a close eye on the proceedings, especially since every race is on dirt now.
Best Bet SUNNY RIVER
Number 2
Morning Line (5-2)
Best Bet Overview #2 SUNNY RIVER (5-2): Juddmonte homebred had a trip in her debut 2nd, as she broke from the outside post of 10, was slow into stride, and then was 7-W on the far turn, so off that experience builder, she should be tighter—and closer early—today.
Picks & Plays Aggressive WP bet and single to end the late Pk5/Pk4 as well.
