2021 Los Alamitos Futurity morning-line odds, picks: Racing insider offers bet strategy for Saturday's race
Sharp handicapper and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir has had multiple five-figure days at the track and crushed the exacta in the Tampa Bay Derby in March for $1,414. Now he targets Saturday's Los Alamitos Futurity 2021 at Los Alamitos
Qualifying points for next year's Kentucky Derby will be on the line on Saturday when a field of five 2-year-olds leaves the starting gate in the 2021 Los Alamitos Futurity at Los Alamitos Race Course in Cypress, Calif. The Bob Baffert-trained Messier has been installed as the 1-2 morning-line favorite in the 2021 Los Alamitos Futurity odds. The Doug O'Neill-trained Durante is next on the odds board at 9-2 in the Los Alamitos Futurity field. Post time is 6:58 p.m. ET.
Before you make any Los Alamitos Futurity 2021 picks or bets, you NEED to see the latest picks from racing insider and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir.
A Saratoga Springs-based racing insider and Beyer Speed Figure maker, Weir has studied the race and constructed his wagers in his analysis below. A two-time qualifier for the prestigious National Horseplayers Championship in Las Vegas, Weir has produced multiple five-figure days at the track over the years, including a $60,000 Pick 6 at Del Mar in 2014. This year, he has been on fire. He hit the exacta in the Sam F. Davis Stakes, Tampa Bay Derby and Peter Pan Stakes, the trifecta in the Risen Star Stakes, Blue Grass Stakes and Pennsylvania Derby and the superfecta in the Belmont Stakes, with the Tampa Bay score returning $1,414. Those are just some of his scores in 2021.
Now, Weir has handicapped the Los Alamitos Futurity 2021 field, made his picks and constructed his bets.
One surprise: Weir's top pick is not Messier, even though he is the overwhelming 1-2 morning-line favorite. "He may not be quite as formidable as he appears on paper," Weir told SportsLine.
Weir's top pick is a horse whom he expects will "get a much cleaner trip Saturday." Weir also is high on a horse who "continues to train forwardly." Weir is including these horses in his 2021 Los Alamitos Futurity bets, and so should you. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks before locking in any of your own!
