World class racing takes place at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Fla., and on New Year's Day the late Pick 4 begins with Race 8 at 3:37 p.m. ET and ends with Race 11. Before making any Pick 4 picks, you'll want to hear what SportsLine senior writer Gene Menez has to say.

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 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.

Now, Menez has handicapped the late Pick 4 at Gulfstream for New Year's Day, made his picks and formulated his bets.

We can tell you that Menez is high on Simplification, a 3-1 shot in the Mucho Macho Man Stakes, the third leg of the Pick 4. "He is bred to enjoy the stretchout in distance, and there's no much else in this race," Menez tells SportsLine. Simplification is Menez's top pick in the Mucho Macho Man Stakes and a single A horse on his Pick 4 tickets.

In addition, Menez's is high on a double-digit long shot on Saturday! Menez says this horse has "shown tactical speed and an ability to pass" and could spice up the Pick 4. Menez is using this long shot on his tickets, and so should you. You NEED to see his analysis before making any Pick 4 selections.

So which double-digit long shot can win? And how has Menez constructed his Pick 4 tickets? ... Join SportsLine now to get the Pick 4 selections for Saturday, all from the racing writer who once cashed for $6,900 on Kentucky Derby day!
