Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on Jan. 22, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Thursday, Jan. 22, 2015

Saturday night I played a $16 ticket and had three out of four.

Meet totals: standard ticket, six plays, -$96, whale ticket, two plays, -$29

Standard ticket: 50 cent play: 10/249/57/46 = $6
Whale ticket: 50 cent play: none

Analysis:

Race 7: The best horses seem to be on the outside here. I’m going to single the ML favorite, (10) Colossal, who showed speed in a quick mile off a layoff last week.

Race 8: I’m going to use three here, (2) My Muscleman, the obvious favorite, plus (4) Aquanilla and (9) Great Emancipator.

Race 9: This is the type of race that will be won by a longshot, but I don’t want to play a big ticket tonight. I’ll use two, (5) Go West Lucky Cam and (7) One More Miracle.

Race 10: (4) My QP Doll is really the only solid form here. I’ll also use (6) Lizzie’s Dream.
