2024 Saratoga morning line odds: Racing insider gives picks for the penultimate Pick 5 for Saturday, June 8

Sharp handicapper and Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir has revealed his picks for the penultimate Pick 5 for Saturday at his home track, Saratoga Race Course

Saturday is Belmont Stakes day at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., and there's an all-Grade 1 Pick 5 that starts with the Woody Stephens Stakes at 3:22 p.m. ET and ends with the Belmont Stakes. 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 since 2017, 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 and an $18,000 Pick 5 at Tampa Bay Downs in early April.

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 a Pick 4 at Belmont for $555. Those were just some of his scores for SportsLine from 2023.

And five weeks ago, Weir hit the exacta in the Churchill Downs Stakes for $852.

For Belmont Stakes day, Weir has handicapped the penultimate Pick 5 at Saratoga, made his picks and constructed his tickets.

We can tell you that Weir is high on Cogburn, the 2-1 favorite in the Jaipur Stakes, the second leg of the Pick 5. "He has always shown talent for trainer Steve Asmussen but seemed to find his calling when moved to the turf five races ago, resulting in four wins and a close finish over the unique Kentucky Downs course," Weir told SportsLine. Cogburn is Weir's top pick in the Jaipur Stakes and a lone A horse on his Pick 5 tickets.

In addition, Weir is high on a big double-digit longshot on Saturday. This longshot "could be running late at a big price" and could spice up the Pick 5. Weir is including this longshot on his tickets, and so should you. You NEED to see Weir's analysis before making any Pick 5 selections.
