2024 Fair Grounds morning line odds: Racing insider gives picks for the late Pick 4 for Saturday, March 23
One week after hitting the Tropical Turf Pick 3, sharp handicapper and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir attacks the late Pick 4 on Saturday at Fair Grounds
Saturday is Louisiana Derby Day at Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, and the late Pick 4 begins with the New Orleans Classic Stakes at 5:04 p.m. ET and ends with the Louisiana Derby. Before you make any picks, you need to know how Saratoga Springs-based racing insider and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir has handicapped the sequence.
A member of the Beyer Speed Figure-making team, Weir is a two-time qualifier for the prestigious National Horseplayers Championship in Las Vegas. He has produced multiple five-figure days at the track over the years, including a $60,000 Pick 6 at Del Mar in 2014.
In April of last year, he hit a Pick 4 at Gulfstream Park for $641, the exacta in the Florida Derby, a Pick 5 at Keeneland and the exacta in the Lexington Stakes. He smashed the trifecta in the Belmont Stakes for $532.96, and later in June he crushed the Pick 4 at Belmont for $555. Those were just some of his scores from 2023.
And last week, Weir hit the Tropical Turf Pick 3 at Gulfstream Park for $191.40.
For Saturday, Weir has handicapped the late Pick 4 at Fair Grounds, made his picks and constructed his tickets.
We can tell you that Weir is high on I'm Very Busy, the 4-1 favorite in the Muniz Memorial Classic Stakes, the second leg of the Pick 4. "He drew a difficult post, but if jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. can keep him out of trouble and he runs a similar race, he's the one to beat," Weir told SportsLine. I'm Very Busy is Weir's top pick in the Muniz Memorial Classic Stakes and an A horse on his Pick 4 tickets.
In addition, Weir is high on a double-digit longshot on Saturday. Weir says this longshot "has a strong late kick" and could spice up the Pick 4. Weir is including this longshot on his tickets, and so should you. You need to see Weir's analysis before making any Pick 4 selections.
