Churchill Downs morning line odds: Racing insider gives picks for the Pick 4 for Saturday, May 6

Beyer Speed Figure maker Bob Weir, who has had multiple five-figure days at the track, attacks Saturday's Pick 4 at Churchill Downs

Saturday is Kentucky Derby day at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., and there's a Pick 4 that begins with the American Turf at 3:40 p.m. ET and ends with the Kentucky Derby. Before you make any picks, you NEED to know how racing insider and accomplished horseplayer Bob Weir has handicapped the sequence.

A member of the Beyer Speed Figure-making team who is based in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., 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 red-hot in the Triple Crown prep races, hitting the superfecta in the Blue Grass Stakes for $1,678 and exactas in the Fountain of Youth Stakes and Tampa Bay Derby. He also 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.

Five weeks ago, he hit the late Pick 4 at Gulfstream Park and the exacta in the Florida Derby. Three weeks ago, he nailed the Pick 5 at Keeneland and the exacta in the Lexington Stakes.

For Saturday, Weir has handicapped the Pick 4 at Churchill Downs, made his picks and constructed his tickets.

We can tell you that Weir is high on Cody's Wish, the 4-5 favorite in the Churchill Downs Stakes, the second leg of the Pick 4. "Trainer Bill Mott is not bringing him back in this spot unless he thinks he's ready to pick up where he left off last year," Weir tells SportsLine. Cody's Wish is Weir's top pick in the Churchill Downs Stakes and a lone "A" horse on his Pick 4 tickets.

In addition, Weir is high on a big double-digit longshot on Saturday. Weir says the horse "has been doing well recently" 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.
