Racing insider gives selections for early Pick 4 at Gulfstream Park on Sunday, May 17
Gulfstream Park's early Pick 4 on Sunday begins with Race 2 at 1:15 p.m. ET and ends with Race 5. Before you make any picks, you NEED to know how racing insider and accomplished horseplayer Bob Weir has handicapped the four-race sequence.
Based in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., Weir has been handicapping and following horse racing since reading Andy Beyer's landmark handicapping book "Picking Winners" in the late 1980s. Weir is highly invested in the Beyer Speed Figure, a number assigned to every race run by a horse that measures how fast the horse ran. He uses the figure as the backbone of his handicapping. In fact, thanks to his proficiency with speed figures and top-tier handicapping, he landed one of just eight spots on Beyer's figure-making team in 2017, a position he holds to this day.
Weir's methodology has produced multiple five-figure days. In 2014, he hit a $60,000 Pick 6 at Del Mar. The following year, he nailed a $31,000 Pick 6 at Gulfstream Park. In 2016 and 2017, Weir qualified for the prestigious National Horseplayers Championship in Las Vegas.Â
And this year, his first for SportsLine, Weir has been on fire. In January he crushed the Pegasus World Cup, giving out an $8 exacta and a $1 trifecta, winning $757.60. In February's Sam F. Davis Stakes, he gave out the $0.50 superfecta, which paid $150.75. In March, Weir correctly pegged Wells Bayou to win the Louisiana Derby.
He nailed the late Pick 4 at Gulfstream Park on both April 9 and April 10, hitting for $827.65 and $394.65. He cashed the Pick 4 again at the same track on April 30, May 2, and on Friday. Anyone who has followed Weir this year is WAY UP.
Now, Weir has handicapped the early Pick 4 at Gulfstream Park for Sunday, made his picks and constructed his tickets.
We can tell you that Weir is high on Voodoo Zip, the 2-1 favorite in Race 4, the third leg of the Pick 4. "[Voodoo Zip] is capable of working out a good trip by laying close," Weir tells SportsLine. He has designated Voodoo Zip as a single A horse on his Pick 4 tickets.
In addition, Weir is high on a double-digit longshot on Sunday! Weir says this horse "had three good runs last summer and fall" and could light up the toteboard and spice up the Pick 4. Weir is including this horse on his tickets, and so should you. You NEED to see Weir's analysis before making any Pick 4 selections.
So which double-digit longshot can win? And how has Weir constructed his Pick 4 tickets? ... Join SportsLine now to get early Pick 4 selections at Gulfstream Park for Sunday, all from the racing insider who is on fire this year!
