Last week’s simple $24 Whitney Day late pick four play brought back $216.50, so let’s plow some of the profits back into the $500,000-guaranteed pick four on Fourstardave Day. We’ll use the same basic strategy of singling in one leg and spreading as necessary in the others.

In the Belmont Oaks on July 4, won in a runaway by Lady Eli, there was a virtual triple dead heat for fourth. Strict Compliance and Senterio Italia finished in an actual dead heat for fourth, with Consumer Credit just a neck behind them in sixth. Now, those three return as the favorites in a field of five for the Grade 2 Lake Placid, the Friday feature at Saratoga.
Scooter's Choice (#10, ML 20-1) returns in Friday's eighth race at Remington Park, a five-furlong allowance on turf. It will be her first start since finishing first by three lengths in a claiming race June 12 at Lone Star Park. The second- and third-place finishers from that race came back to win their next starts. Get the Key Race report as part of DRF Plus. Sign up for DRF Plus here.
