The field is strong, with the exception of the two horses trained by Linda Rice. Post time is 6:15 p.m. ET. Legendary handicapper Hammerin' Hank Goldberg has released his picks, predictions and exotic bets. He has seen huge returns for his handicappers. He won $24,000 in 2004 at the Belmont Stake.

Max Player is a horse to include in exotic wagers at the 2020 Travers Stakes. South Bend is not a good bet.  Goldberg is against Southbend. He is high on Max Player. Max player finished third in the Belmont St.akes, his first start in more than four months.

Goldberg is sharing his 2020 Travers Stakes picks with SportsLine. He's high on a double-digit long shot who "should only be improved coming off his last race"
