The Meadowlands has a 14-race card with the 0.50 Late Pick 4 starting in Race 10. The sequence has a $50,000 guaranteed pool with a 15% takeout, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 10 (10:20 PM EDT)

1-Sawyer's Desire (5/2)-Was cashing smaller checks at PcD, shipped in and put in a no-move at M1 against better. Now, Jason Bartlett is at the controls and drops again. Went the back half in .56 last week to come 5th in a quick mile. This looks like a spot to wake up.
7-Gaitway Patriot (10-1)-Like some of these, the Jeff Smith trainee doesn't take many pictures but did win the last time in versus similar. Comes off an even try facing better, and at 10-1 is worth a swing against this suspect group.

Race 11 (10:45 PM EDT)

2-San Jose (3-1)-Drops after finishing a suck around 2nd while facing better. Tim Tetrick takes the lines, and the 5-year-old should get a cozy trip. Looks like a main player and has won 8 of 22 starts at M1.
5-Select Friday (7/2)-Has been in good form and outraced its 41-1 odds in last. Bumped up to this level and finished 2nd. The big number is in the past but should offer a fair price and could win with a smooth steer.

Race 12 (11:10 PM EDT)

1-Tahuya Silk (5-1)-Broke stride in last and lost all chance. Went off at 5-1 with Dexter Dunn in the bike and should offer a better price tonight with Patrick Ryder at the controls. Looks like a suck around trip out candidate at a nice price.
5-Moonwards Hanover (6-1)-This is a rag tag bunch and will toss the last race on a sloppy track. The start before was used hard early in the mile. Will look for a kinder trip with Colin Kelly between the pipes and at this price needs to be used.

Race 13 (11:35 PM EDT)

1-Hungryhungry Hippo (6-1)-Was a winner 3 back against this kind and might be overlooked tonight. Jordan Stratton steers for his 2nd straight and should get an efficient trip. Could be in line for a pocket ride and racing near the top of the stack is needed.
2-Lovenbury (5/2)-Started at this TM level in 2 of the last 3 races. Goes from Todd McCarthy in the bike to Bradley Chisholm, so will anticipate the price will be better than the morning line. Should be right there at the wire again if put in play when the wings fold.

$2 Late Pick 4
