Keith Gisser offers his picks for the $10,000 Pick 4 at Northfield Park on May 4, part of the USTA Strategic Wagering program.

Northfield Park Pick 4, Races 8-11, Wednesday, May 4, 2011

$1 play: 15/169/123/12 = $36
$1 play: 15/69/123/1 = $12

Analysis:

Race 8: Soul Redeemer is a major player from the rail and although Noble Thought hasn’t won recently, his current form means he must be used.

Race 9: Not wild about any of these, and you might consider going deeper here.

Race 10: Noble was listed on nearly every horse, but chose (1) Medoland Tess. Phagus Hall keeps running into horses making monster efforts and Zipsnapndrop showed he may be back with his win at the bottom last week.

Race 11: (1) Go Cowboy Go is first-time in the Ehrhardt barn, which is about money in the bank, even though he may not look it on paper. Not like Dan Noble hurts you here. (2) Auto Pilot has back class and finally won a race last start, which makes him a scary competitor.
