TRI’s Picks February 4 Balmoral

Balmoral Park Pick 4, Races 10-13, Saturday, February 4, 2012

After a long break of inability to produce a ticket, TRI is back with the Balmoral Pick 4! Our ticket tonight looks very good and I have high hopes it will win. Good luck!

$2 Play: 3,8/2,3/8/4 = $8

Analysis:

Race 10- (3) Washington Hanover raced phenomenally from post 10 last time. He closed from dead last to finish sixth by 3 lengths. He moves inside tonight and has a very good chance of winning. (8) Tuffery N went a first over mile last time. If he can sit mid-pack and get cover, he could upset.  

Race 11- (2) Lady Lakers went a first over mile in this company last time. That race seemed like she woke up and if so, she should provide a better effort tonight. (3) Discoverer is always competitive. Last time, he gained 10 lengths within a quarter of a mile. If she stays closer to the pace, she can use that kick in the lane to win.

Race 12- (8) Smiling Bob raced well at Maywood before coming to Balmoral. His last start seemed like he needed to race around the track. If this is true, then he should do a lot better tonight.

Race 13- (4) Hurricane John is stepping up after a hellish trip. He was first over for most of the race and stayed right next to the leader. If he gets a better trip, his endurance will be used more sparingly.
