World class horse racing takes place at Belmont Park in Elmont, N.Y., and on Saturday the late Pick 5 begins with the Belmont Oaks at 4:07 p.m. ET and ends with Race 11. Before you make any picks, you NEED to know how racing insider and accomplished horseplayer Bob Weir has handicapped the five-race sequence.

A Saratoga Springs-based racing insider and Beyer Speed Figure maker, 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. Last year, he was 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.

This year, he has been red-hot in the Triple Crown prep races, hitting the superfecta in the Blue Grass Stakes, the trifecta in the Louisiana Derby and exactas in the Fountain of Youth Stakes and Tampa Bay Derby. He also has hit the 19-1 winner of the Man o' War Stakes, the trifecta in the Pegasus World Cup, the superfecta in the Met Mile and multiple Pick 4s, including May 14's at Belmont for $1,851. Anyone who has followed him is way up.

Now he has handicapped the late Pick 5 at Belmont Park for Saturday, made his picks and constructed his tickets.

We can tell you that Weir is high on Salt Cay, the 7-2 favorite in Race 10, the fourth leg of the Pick 5. "He did improve in his second start, and if he improves again with the surface change, he's the one to beat," Weir tells SportsLine. Salt Cay is Weir's top choice in Race 10 and a single A horse on his Pick 5 tickets.

In addition, Weir's top choice in one of the races on Saturday is a double-digit long shot! Weir says this horse "could be ready and improved off the bench" and could spice up the Pick 5. Weir is including this long shot on his tickets, and so should you. You NEED to see Weir's analysis before making any Pick 5 selections.

So which double-digit long shot can win? And how has Weir constructed his Pick 5 tickets? ... Join SportsLine now to get the late Pick 5 selections for Saturday at Belmont Park, all from the racing insider who has been on fire!
