TRI’s Picks February 9 Meadowlands

Meadowlands Racetrack Pick 4, Races 6-9, Thursday, February 9, 2012

On Saturday, we had another night of no winners. The favorites prevailed all night, minus Border Fighting, who did not make the ticket last week due to a late decision. He paid $62.60. I wish everyone good luck and remind you to only bet these horses if their 4-1 and up.

$2 Play: 1,6/5/3/3,6 = $8

Analysis:

Race 6- (1) Arts Ideal Hanover is the newbie in this bunch. He is coming off of two good qualifiers and may be able to upset. (6) Big League made a big early move in leg one of the Junior Trendsetter. Technically, he sustained an effort as Social Network drew away from this group. Since he’s not entered, this horse also could be a longshot.

Race 7- (5) Exterminator made a big move in his last pari-mutuel start. He didn’t fade very badly, but lost about 2 lengths in the stretch. He comes off of good qualifying efforts and should do well as long as he doesn’t come first over.

Race 8- (3) Morwyn Hanover made an early move last time. She got passed by better in deep stretch. She steps down tonight and should improve.

Race 9- (3) Mr Vitti raced well in higher back in May. He has been on a long layoff and comes off of some well-run qualifiers. He should be fresh tonight. (6) Rader Detector raced well going 1 ½ miles in $7,500 Claiming company. Before that, he was a bit of a threat in $10,000 Claiming groups. He should turn into the threat he was tonight.
