Fair Grounds morning line odds: Racing insider gives picks for the late Pick 5 for Saturday, March 25

Saturday is Louisiana Derby day at Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, and the late Pick 5 begins with the Tom Benson Memorial Stakes at 4:32 p.m. ET and ends with the Louisiana Derby. Before you make any picks, you NEED to know how racing insider and accomplished horseplayer Bob Weir has handicapped the five-race 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 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.

For Saturday, Weir has handicapped the late Pick 5 at Fair Grounds, made his picks and constructed his tickets.

We can tell you that Weir is high on Atone, the 5-2 favorite in the Muniz Memorial Stakes, the third leg of the Pick 5. "This 6-year-old has never been better and finally broke through with his first graded stakes win in his last start," Weir tells SportsLine. Atone is Weir's top pick in the Muniz Memorial and a single A horse on his Pick 5 tickets.

In addition, Weir is high on a big double-digit longshot on Saturday. Weir says this horse "takes a big step up" 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.
