The Meadowlands has a 14-race card, and the 0.50 Late Pick 4 starts 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 (10:05 PM EST)

3-Elektra A (7/2)-Comes off a win at Philly and can dance with this kind on a larger oval. Corey Callahan should be racing near the top of the stack and looks like a player in its Big M debut. The Callahan-Cullipher combo posts 27% winners when they team up.
4-Talk Curdy To Me (5/2)-This is the other Cullipher trainee and Tim Tetrick posts 27% winners when driving for this barn. The mare has done good work at the Big M hitting the board in 4 of 7 with 2 pictures. This is a fast mare and will be tough to beat with a top effort.

Race 11 (10:30 PM EST)

5-Cold Feet (6-1)-The Walner 3-year-old makes its 1st start at M1 but has raced well at VD and now gets the services of Dexter Dunn. Should relish the company and could roll by them all down the long stretch.
7-Blarney Castle (3-1)-Raced evenly on 10-18 in the 1st start in East Rutherford after being off about 3 weeks between starts. Raced well from post 8 at Yonkers on Wednesday and will look for another strong try on the quick turn-around.

Race 12 (10:55 PM EST)

5-Papi's Rocket (6/5)-Has 5 pictures in 12 starts this year but hasn't strung wins together. Comes off a win against this kind on 10-25. This will be the 3rd straight start at M1 and should have his way with this field if brings its best try.

Race 13 (11:20 PM EST)

5-Alta Blues A (7/2)-This is a formless group except for #10 who was scratched sick in last but will still be bet down tonight with Dunn in control. My play will be to fade the chalk and look for Scott Zeron to leave hard to land in a close-up seat. If that is the case, a suck-around win could be in the cards as this pilot knows how to skim the cones down the lane.
6-Passa-Grille Beach (10-1)-Using this price shot as Yannick Gingras should have the pedal down to try to get the jump on the program chalk. Could land on top without burning a lot of gas. If so, can win off a well-rated mile if the opening quarter goes well.
