Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on July 25, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 7-10, Saturday, July 26, 2014

Last night I had the right idea but left out one horse again, the third night in a row where I had three out of four winners in the Pick-4. The last two Saturdays I had big nights, 15 top winners. Let’s hope it continues tonight.

I’ve hit the Pick-4 three times this meet. Championship Meet totals: Standard ticket, 18 plays, -$48.40. Whale ticket, 11 plays, +$168.75.

Standard ticket: 50 cent play: 12/356/13/7 = $6
Whale ticket: 50 cent play: 12/356/13/7 = $6

Analysis:

Race 7: (1) Market Share looks tough here but I got burned by leaving out Svanstedt last night, but this time I’m using (2) Your So Vain, who was impressive winning last.

Race 8: This is a wide open race. I’m going to use 3, 5 and 6 and keep my fingers crossed.

Race 9: (1) Rockeyed Optimist is not a reliable favorite. I’ll add (3) Perspective off the improved qualifiers.

Race 10: This is a pretty competitive race, but I like (7) Caviart Key’s last race and he gets Tetrick tonight. I’ll single him.
