Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on May 13, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Saturday, May 13, 2017

Both of my singles won last night and I used five horses in the seventh race, and still only had three out of four on my $12.00 ticket ($1.00 units). I missed the $29.00 winner of the seventh. One of my horses was a late scratch in the seventh and the winner would have been my substitute. My meet results so far, 4 for 50, winners paid $394.55 for 50-cents, $41.65 for 50-cents, $85.00 for $1.00, $103.60 for 50-cents, minus $118.70. Whale tickets, 0 for 3, minus $100.00

Standard Ticket: 50-cent play: 27/123458/26/15 = $24.00
Whale Ticket: 50-cent play: none

Analysis:

Race 7: (7) Preparty and (2) Iammrbrightside N are both sharp and logical in this seven horse race.

Race 8: This is the most wide open race on the card. I’m using six here, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8.

Race 9: (6) War-N-Munn looks like he’s ready to win but I’m also using (2) Mister Truth, who has class over this track.

Race 10: (5) Cherokee Ranger and (1) Fraternity appear closely matched here.
