Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Friday, April 19, 2013

Last week’s results: On Friday my $32 ticket went down as I had two out of four. Saturday I had three out of four but missed the last race on my $36 ticket.

$1 play: 56/37/13/14810 = $32

Analysis:

Race 7: (6) Delightful Diva ships in from Harrah’s Philadelphia and this classy mare has a career mark of 1:49.1 over this track. I’m also using (5) It’s De Lovely who comes out of the same race.

Race 8: (3) In Nomine Patri has won at this level two bsack. (7) Fox Valley Smarty wired weaker sharply.

Race 9: (1) Heidi Falls raced well against similar in last. (3) Latte Hall broke in last at Pocono but ships in and gets a key driver change to Campbell for a sharp trotting trainer.

Race 10: The final leg is a very tough race. I’m using all four of my contenders — 1, 4, 8 and 10.
