1/ST BET Horse Racing Predictions from Gulfstream Park:

We are excited to announce a renewed partnership with the fine folks and handicappers at 1/ST BET. Jeremy Plonk and Jeff Siegel will be sharing their expertise on a weekly basis to pass along some ponies that they like for races at various tracks around the country, including Tampa Bay Downs and Gulfstream Park.

For this Thursday, January 9 article, Jeremy Plonk shares everything you need to know for the racing card for Gulfstream Park.

Gulfstream Park | Race 8 | 4:03 pm ET

#5 Turbulent Force (4-1 morning line odds) was a debut winner on the Gulfstream turf on December 6 and now makes the natural rise in class while changing to the synthetic Tapeta surface. Trainer George Weaver is a strong 30% on synthetic tracks and knows which ones to put there. Win bet #5. Daily Double 5-2 to next pick.

Gulfstream Park | Race 9 | 4:34 pm ET

#2 Neat Trick (9-2 morning line odds)  is the pick in a race where the likely favorite will be vastly overbet and provide value to the others. I’ll stand against the regally bred Tapit-Songbird colt  Rumours Have It, who has just two workouts since debuting in November and one career start now at age 4. Neat Trick ran well over the track fresh here this time a year ago and comes back with a very solid workout tab for Danny Gargan.  Win bet #2.
