EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ (January 6, 2017) – The Meadowlands
late pick four wager returned a whopping $30,318.05 to three lucky horseplayers
on Friday night thanks to a series of long shot winners. The total pool was
$107,018.
22-year-old Big M newcomer Drew Monti was responsible for
three of the four winners in the sequence including $110 upsetter Abbijade
Hanover for leading trainer Ron Burke in the opening leg. That was followed by
$23 winner Windsong Illusion, driven by leading driver Brett Miller. Monti won
the next two races with $27 winner Fanticipation and closed out the sequence
with $11 winner Joyful Game.
Monti is racing at the Meadowlands for just the third
week after earning leading driver honors at the recently concluded Batavia
Downs meet. It is his first Meadowlands driving triple. He entered tonight with
just one career win at the Big M.
