Bob Pandolfo offers his picks for the $50,000 Pick-4 at Meadowlands Racetrack on Nov. 16, part of the U.S. Trotting Association Strategic Wagering Program.

Meadowlands Pick-4, races 8-11, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019

I had a strong night overall last night with seven winners on top including a 5-1 shot and a 9-2 shot, but I only had three of four in the late Pick-4, minus $18. Meet record: 11 Pick-4s, two won, nine lost, plus $175.35.

Tonight’s tickets:

50-cent play: 18/2359/346,10/26,10 = $48

Analysis:

Race 8: (1) Marloe Hanover is the logical favorite but (8) Hen Party raced very well for new barn in last.

Race 9: This is a wide open race. I used all four of my top contenders, 2, 3, 5, 9.

Race 10: (3) Annihilation may be worth a price here, really didn’t have much of a chance in last and gets a better spot tonight. (4) New Talent probably needed last, drops. (6) Franco Totem N steps up off a win, has some class. (10) Vega Star N drops and is a factor despite the post.

Race 11: (2) Century Churchill is my top pick as he picks up a hot driver. (6) Stormont Czar A was shuffled in last. (10) Whittaker N steps up off a win, has some class.
