Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on Dec. 1, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.
Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Friday, Dec. 1, 2017
Last Saturday my $3 ticket hit for $51.55. Saturday, Nov. 4, my $18 ticket won and returned $41.80. I’ll start keeping a running total again in Dec. Now that Harrahs and Pocono are closed, it’s going to get a lot tougher to hit the Pick-4, but the payoffs will be much bigger.
Standard Tickets: 50-cents: 5678/2368/237/4 = $24.00
Whale Ticket: 50-cent play: none
Analysis:
Race 7: This is a very tough sequence tonight. I’m using all four of my listed contenders in this race, (5) Gold Medal Swan, (6) P L Ichabod, (7) South Side Hanover and (8) Lauderdale.
Race 8: This is another tough race and I’m trying four, (2) All It Takes, (3) Roll N Catch, (6) High Octane N and (8) Justified.
Race 9: I think I can get through this with three, (2) Purity, (3) Fire N Diamonds and (7) Bettor Chill Out.
Race 10: (4) Cardiac Fashion moves into the Burke barn. This is not an easy race but you can’t play them all so I’m going to single this one.
