Nine fillies and mares will square off on the turf at Keeneland Race Course on Saturday when the starting gate opens in the 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes. The Chad Brown-trained Excellent Truth has been installed as the 5-2 morning-line favorite in the 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes odds. She will be making her first start in the United States. Kehoe Beach (7-2), Choisya (4-1), Jabaara (9-2) and Be Your Best (6-1) round out the top five choices in the 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes field. Post time for the race is 5:48 p.m. ET.
With several talented fillies and mares set to enter the starting gate on Saturday, you NEED to see what SportsLine writer Gene Menez has to say before making any 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes picks or horse racing predictions.
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. In November, he crushed the late Pick 4 on Breeders' Cup Saturday for a $5,303 windfall. In February he hit the winner and exacta in the Holy Bull Stakes in February for a $422.50 payday. And in the last round of Derby preps, 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.
Now, Menez has handicapped the 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes field, made his picks and constructed his tickets. We can tell you that Menez's top pick is not Excellent Truth, even though she is the 5-2 betting favorite. "She will be making her first start in North America, and there's no telling how she will take to how races are run in this country," Menez told SportsLine.
Instead, Menez's top pick is a horse who "got better at the end of last year." He also is high on a double-digit longshot who "has a puncher's chance at a longshot price." Menez is including these horses in his 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes bets, and so should you. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see which horses they are before making any 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes picks of your own.
So which horse wins the 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes? What double-digit longshot is a must-back? And how has Menez constructed his wagers? ... Join SportsLine now to get the top 2025 Jenny Wiley Stakes picks and bets, all from the expert who just nailed the Blue Grass Stakes!
