Super Screener: Gulfstream Park Turf an attractive betting race

Saturday's Gulfstream Park Turf doesn't boast the strongest of Grade 1 fields, but it’s actually an attractive wagering opportunity here as the favorites in the race all share some degree of vulnerability. Horse Racing Nation's Super Screener has honed in on a pair of high-priced top picks, with author Mike Shutty's having a penchant for nailing grass races.

Horse Racing Nation's Super Screener Stakes Weekly analysis -- based on a robust, time-tested research methodology driven by a set of rules -- is here to help with your handicapping. The inspiration for this product came from our loyal Triple Crown and Breeders’ Cup Super Screener customers. They have often asked us for a product focused on analyzing the key graded stakes that run each weekend throughout the year.

What's offered here -- for free -- is only a small sample of the full product now available! This weekend's Screener will also cover the Sam F. Davais and San Vicente Stakes for 3-year-olds, along with World Approval's return in the Tampa Bay Stakes.

Now, on to the Gulfstream Park Turf top choices...

#3 Kurilov (6-1) - A 
Chilean import trained now by Chad Brown gets back to turf after two strong dirt performances, including a near miss in the Queen’s Company run in the slop. Will press the pace and unleashes an explosive turn of foot nearing the wire. This is the perfect distance, he runs well off breaks, good last work on turf, faces easier…top player.

#8 Channel Maker (10-1) - Coming into his own now for trainer Bill Mott, this lightly raced 4-year-old has more upside potential than most in here. That last race is coming back false numbers-wise, but the race prior is representative, and he’s better than that one. Plays well into the winning track profile especially with rails closer in. 
Sits the perfect trip four lengths off the leaders early.
