The winner didn't do much running in her five furlong turf debut in Florida though she did gallop out OK ( which is usually misleading ). Plus, her dam was a severe closing sprinter and predicting her to stretch out successfully was not easy to do.
The only way you could realistically have had her in the Pick-4, and this is often a good strategy, was to decide that everyone from the Madam Bling race was mediocre, and thus use ALL the strangers.
I used the same two as you. It didn't matter as I also thought the favorite in the 5th was a cinch and didn't like the winner at all. It really didn't matter because I bet next to nothing in the Pick-4.
