Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on Feb. 17, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Friday, Feb. 17, 2017

No luck last night. I had nine winners on top Saturday night and I hit the Pick-4 for $1, which I had cold, for an $85 return. My meet results so far, 2 for 16, winners paid $41.65 for 50 cents and $85 for $1, minus $254.85.

Standard Ticket: 50-cent play: 67/57/129/35 = $12
Whale Ticket: none

Analysis:

Race 7: (6) Rose Run Parker returns off a layoff for a top barn and he is fast. (7) Muscle Diamond is versatile and can race on or off the pace.

Race 8: (7) Danish Durango drops and may put it together. (5) Enjoy The Journey drops off a race she needed.

Race 9: Good trot race. I’m going to use three, 1, 2, 9.

Race 10: (3) O U Sexy Guy is the one to beat. (5) Wilberforce is dangerous off the drop.
