A Pick Six carryover of nearly $30,000 will headline the card when racing resumes Wednesday. March 3 at the Meadowlands Racetrack.
A $1 base wager, the Pick Six is available nightly on Races 4 through 9. A nine-day Pick Six carryover produced a $131,599 payout on Saturday, February 6, 2010. It was the highest payout this year and the second highest in track history behind a record $1.3 million pool and $193,384 payoff on April 4, 2009.

Race 4
2-Kurt Rustler
• 10yo veteran has cycled forward off the upset, In line for a better trip from post 2
7-Cardmaster
• came a big back half in his first start off the bench, Has some back class for the Burke barn
Race 5
2-Most Happy Dragon

10-Hes Redhot
• mystery horse from Chicago won his lone start in a romp over snow for Erv Miller
Race 6
3-Cosmic Madness
• Dover Downs invader has won twice this year with decent late response, changes barns and draws well
8-Prime Xample A
• veteran has quickly sharpened on the comeback trail, beaten favorite can grind it out
Race 7
5-Hypnotist
• controlled the pace and barely out sprinted in :27.3, second try off lasix shows lines in $50,000 claimers
10-Poker Dice
• chased a 1:51.4 race track ruler, plummets all the way to the bottom rung for a high percentage barn
Race 8
1-S A Poster Boy
• gradual recent improvement, fresh off a solid second to a runaway and lands the pole
6-Honolulu Hunk
• got shuffled and came back for third in his return to the mile track, a fresh threat with more class than most of these
Race 9
2-Seymour Doolittle
• flashed a hint of form two starts back while essentially overmatched and drops into a blank field
6-Sly Grin N
• based on last year’s record he should blow this bunch away, note the barn change on this Yonkers shipper to Carmine Fusco
