The undefeated Maxfield will try to improve to a perfect 6-for-6 in his career when he leaves the starting gate on Saturday in one of the country's most storied races, the 2021 Santa Anita Handicap at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif. He has been installed as the 8-5 morning-line favorite in the Santa Anita Handicap odds. Post time is 8 p.m. ET. 

Before making any 2021 Santa Anita Handicap picks, you NEED to see how handicapping champion Jonathon Kinchen has broken down the race.

Kinchen is one of the nation's most successful and recognizable horseplayers. An analyst for Fox Sports' America's Day at the Races and co-host of the In the Money Players' Podcast, Kinchen won the National Horseplayers Championship Tour in 2015, a demanding, yearlong series of handicapping events across the country. That same year, he became the only player in history to have both of his entries qualify for the final table of the National Horseplayers Championship.

In addition, Kinchen has scored huge on some of racing's biggest days. In November, he finished second out of 418 contestants in the prestigious Breeders' Cup Betting Challenge, which earned him $215,000 in prize money. After factoring in his profit during the 14 Breeders' Cup races, he took home more than $366,000 on the day!

It's no fluke, either. At the 2015 Kentucky Derby, he cashed for $150,000 after nailing a Pick 6 and a Pick 3 that paid $50,000. 

And just last week he nailed a $100 win bet on Greatest Honour to win the Fountain of Youth Stakes. Anyone who has followed him is up BIG.

Now, Kinchen has handicapped the 2021 Santa Anita Handicap field, made his picks and constructed his bets.

We can tell you Kinchen's top pick is not Maxfield, even though he's the 8-5 favorite. "Maxfield is great, but his numbers are not terribly fast," Kinchen tells SportsLine. Kinchen will not have Maxfield on top of any tickets.

Instead, Kinchen's top pick is a horse who has shown "a ton of talent." Kinchen is including this horse in his wagering, and so should you. You NEED to see Kinchen's analysis before making any picks of your own.

So who wins the 2021 Santa Anita Handicap? And how has Kinchen structured his wagers? ... Join SportsLine now to get 2021 Santa Anita Handicap picks and bets, all from an unmatched handicapping champion who won $366,000 in the Breeders' Cup and nailed last week's Fountain of Youth winner!
