Whale ticket: $0.50 cent play: 1236/1246/149/6 = $24.00

Analysis:

Race 7: Tonight’s card lacks strong looking favorites, so it could be a tough Pick-4. I’m going to play a whale ticket and use all four of my contenders in two legs. In this race, 1, 2, 3 and 6.

Race 8: This is another wide open race, so I used all four of my top contenders 1, 2, 4, 6.

Race 9: I’m using three here but the race is wide open.

Race 10: I’m going to single Western Empress, the obvious Burke/Gingras morning line favorite, but the race is pretty wide open.
