Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on Jan. 30, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Friday, Jan. 30, 2015

Last night my $6 ticket went nowhere.

Meet totals: standard ticket, nine plays, -$120, whale ticket, two plays, -$29

Standard ticket: 50 cent play: 8/5/58/234 = $3
Whale ticket: 50 cent play: 8/all/1245810/234 = $90

Analysis:

Race 7: (8) Tamasin Hall should go well here as she drops back to the level of her last win.

Race 8: Very tough race. I’m going to use (5) Bluebird Kidsqueen on one ticket and all on the whale ticket.

Race 9: This is another very tough race. I used two on the standard ticket and six horses on the whale ticket.

Race 10: I’m going to try to cover this with my top pick, (4) Aruba Vacation, (3) How Bout Cash, and (2) Chocoholic, the three that seem the most likely win candidates.
