Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $75,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on March 17, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program. Meadowlands Pick-4, Races 6-9, Saturday, March 17, 2012 I didn’t hit last night, minus $18.00, which brings the total to minus $509.00 for the first 30 nights; I haven’t hit one so far this meet. Good card tonight. $1 play: 38/167/14/10 = $12.00 Analysis: 6th Race: The Overbid Final is a very good race. I’m going with last year’s champion (8) ANNDROVETTE, who will probably leave tonight, and classy (3) PUT ON A SHOW, who was in tight quarters last week and should be ready for a big effort. 7th Race: (1) DROP RED and (7) CORKY BARAN are both classy, but (6) HE’S GORGEOUS moves into a new barn and is a fast horse, and he qualified well. 8th Race: The favorite Gaelic Thunder crushed weaker but I’m going to take a shot with two dangerous drop down horses here, (1) BEST MAGIC and (4) GD AIRLINER. 9th Race: (10) SHOW ME UP has been facing tougher and with any sort of racing luck he can overcome the outside post. I’ll try a single here.
