Pick 4s

To that end, at Belmont today:

Forget the Pk-4 today - the 6th looks like a quagmire of inept horses & trainers

Late PK-3

Chinese Whisper + Hot Pace + Alabama Man

Princess Maura + Shared Account - LaRocca + Fast Tigress

Woodrunner (possible single) + Smart Enuf + Strong Impact

In a situation like this I would play small and basically take the bet you have already constructed and take a shot and single the 6th... If you hit the 6th than you could be in position to cash a big ticket.
