Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Friday, Dec. 23, 2016
My single won last night but that was it, minus $12. Meet results: Standard tickets, 2 for 22, -$74.45 — two winners, one for $81.95, and another for $165.10.
Standard Ticket: 50-cent play: 2/4/14567/78 = $5
Whale Ticket: none
Analysis:
Race 7: (2) Fashion Delight is a classy horse, ships in sharp from New York. I’m going to try two singles here.
Race 8: (4) Doctor Butch set the pace against the bias in last; classy speedster drops.
Race 9: This is a tough one. I’ll use all four of my listed contenders — 1, 4, 5, 6 — plus the 7 horse, Tauranga.
Race 10: (7) Fitz’s Z Tam and (8) Millenium Wheel are the two most logical here.
