Trainer Chad Brown will look to add to his record number of wins in the Diana Stakes when he sends out five horses in the 2024 Diana Stakes on Saturday at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. Brown has won the Diana a record eight times, including seven of the last eight years. On Saturday, he'll go for No. 9 with Whitebeam (4-1), Chili Flag (9-2), Coppice (8-1), Gina Romantica (8-1) and Fluffy Socks (15-1). The favorite in the 2024 Diana Stakes odds, however, is Didia (7-2). Post time for the $500,000 race is 5:43 p.m. ET.

With an accomplished field set to enter the starting gate on Saturday, you'll want to see what SportsLine writer Gene Menez has to say before making any Diana Stakes picks or horse racing predictions. Join SportsLine here to get his full Diana Stakes picks.

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. Join SportsLine right here to see his 2024 Diana Stakes picks.

In a span of seven races last year for SportsLine, he cashed the winner of the Lecomte Stakes, the exacta in the Southwest Stakes ($468), the winner of the Holy Bull Stakes, the winner of the Sam F. Davis Stakes, and the trifecta in the Jenny Wiley Stakes.

In May, Menez gave out 18-1 Mystik Dan as a live longshot in the Kentucky Derby. And just last week he nailed Trikari to win the Belmont Derby Invitational Stakes ($434).

Now, Menez has looked at the 2024 Diana Stakes, made his picks and formulated his bets. Join SportsLine here to see them.

We can tell you that Menez is high on Coppice, an 8-1 longshot. "Now is the time to bet Coppice, who was less than 2-1 in her last two starts," Menez told SportsLine. He is using Coppice prominently in his wagers.

Moreover, Menez's top pick is a horse who "should sit the perfect trip." He also is also high on a double-digit longshot who "still has some upside." He is including these horses in his wagers, and so should you. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see which horses they are before making any 2024 Diana Stakes picks of your own!

So who wins the 2024 Diana Stakes? What double-digit longshot is a must-back? And how has Menez constructed his wagers? ... Join SportsLine now to get the top 2024 Diana Stakes picks and bets, all from the expert who gave out Mystik Dan as a live longshot in the Kentucky Derby!
