2019 Breeders' Cup Classic: Horse racing legend Hank Goldberg reveals picks for Saturday's race

The 2019 Breeders' Cup Classic takes place on Saturday at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif. The Bob Baffert-trained McKinzie is the favorite at 3-1, and post time is 8:44 p.m. ET. Before making any 2019 Breeders' Cup Classic picks, you need to see what legendary handicapper Hammerin' Hank Goldberg has to say.

The former horse racing analyst for ESPN and NBC, Goldberg became a legendary handicapper by going straight to the source. In 2004, he had dinner before the Belmont Stakes with trainer Nick Zito at a pizzeria in Queens. The dinner led Goldberg to play Zito's 36-1 monster long shot Birdstone to win and on top of his exacta, trifecta and superfecta bets. If you had laid $300 on Goldberg's Belmont plays, you would have cashed for more than $21,000.

Anyone who has followed Goldberg's lead is WAY up.

Now Goldberg has studied the 2019 Breeders' Cup Classic field and has released his picks, predictions and exotic bets only at SportsLine.

We can tell you that Goldberg is fading McKinzie, the overall favorite at 3-1. In fact, Goldberg says McKinzie doesn't even hit the board. McKinzie is unproven at the Breeders' Cup Classic 2019 distance of 1 1/4 miles and was easily beaten by fellow Classic competitor Mongolian Groom in the Awesome Again Stakes.

Instead, Goldberg is high on a huge double-digit longshot to hit the board. He's including this horse in his exotic wagers, and so should you. You ABSOLUTELY need to see which horse it is before making your picks.
