Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Late Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on April 5, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 8-11, Friday, April 5, 2019

I had three of four again Saturday night, minus $18. Winter Meet record, 25 Pick-4s, zero winners, minus $473.50.

Tonight’s tickets: 50-cent play: 235/48/19/13 = $12

Analysis:

Race 8: (5) Respect Our Flag is my top pick but my first three picks probably have about the same chance of winning, 2, 3, 5.

Race 9: (8) Rosy Outlook gets a key driver change to hot driver Dexter Dunn. (4) Traffic Jam finished willingly in his local debut.

Race 10: (1) If Not Why Not draws inside of his main rival and makes second start off the layoff. (9) Hockey Hanover steps up off a nice win and might keep improving.

Race 11: (3) World On Edge qualified sharply for Burke and may have a class edge here. (1) Rollwithpapajoe returns for a high percentage barn off a good qualifier.
