The Olympics of horse racing, the Breeders' Cup, begins on Friday at Del Mar just north of San Diego, and on Friday there's a Pick 4 that begins with the Juvenile Fillies at 6:25 p.m. ET and ends with the Juvenile Turf. Before you make any picks, you NEED to know how SportsLine writer Gene Menez has handicapped the sequence, considering the roll he has been on since last year's Breeders' Cup.

A former reporter and editor at Sports Illustrated, Menez covered an array of sports, including horse racing, for the magazine and its website for almost 14 years. Between 2010 and 2012, he served as SI's handicapper for the Triple Crown races and correctly predicted Super Saver to win the Kentucky Derby in 2010.

In 2015, while writing for Sports on Earth, Menez accurately gave out the Kentucky Derby superfecta (American Pharoah, Firing Line, Dortmund and Frosted), which paid $1,268.20 for $2. Then in 2017, he tweeted out his Kentucky Derby picks, including Always Dreaming to win, and hit the Pick 4, which paid almost $6,900 on a $1 bet. In May of last year, Menez gave out 18-1 Mystik Dan as a live longshot in the Kentucky Derby.

Menez has been on a roll since November. He crushed the late Pick 4 on Breeders' Cup Saturday for a $5,303 windfall. He nailed the winner, trifecta and superfecta in the Florida Derby for a $529.60 score and the winner and trifecta in the Blue Grass Stakes for a $761.96 jackpot. Hit the late Pick 4 on Kentucky Oaks day for $915.48. And in the Kentucky Derby, he hammered the exacta and trifecta for a $1,045 payout.

In addition, in June Menez earned a spot in the 2025 Breeders' Cup Betting Challenge, arguably the most prestigious handicapping tournament in the country.

For Friday, Menez has handicapped the Pick 4 beginning with the Juvenile Fillies, made his picks and constructed his tickets.

We can tell you that Menez is high on Ted Noffey, the 4-5 favorite in the Juvenile, the third leg of the Pick 4. "He should get a perfect stalking spot in this small field," Menez told SportsLine. Ted Noffey is the only horse from the race on his Pick 4 tickets.

In addition, Menez is high on a double-digit longshot on Friday. This horse "will be a huge price" and could spice up the payouts. Menez is including this horse on his tickets, and so should you. You NEED to see Menez's analysis before making any selections.

So which double-digit longshot can win? And how has Menez constructed his tickets? ... Join SportsLine now to get selections at Del Mar for Friday, all from the horse racing writer who has been on a roll since last year's Breeders' Cup.
