Kentucky OAKS Selections


Race 10--OAKS 1 1/8 mi 3 y/o Fillies $500,000

#10 Bushfire 5-1 (if no rain) on top
with
#4 Balance 2-1
#12 Ermine 12-1
#7 Wonder Lady Anne L 8-1

I may wind up playing some kind of ticket with #13 Last Romance only on gut instinct and Bejarano's knack for hitting the board....
Needless to say, if it stays dry, I like Bushfire.

Hopefully the racing gods will smile on my old kentucky home and the sun will shine bright and I will cash tickets all day long. I will post as many pics as are worthwhile in my first journey into the heart
of Churchill Downs for the Oaks, live, up close and personal!!

I agree Bushfire must be feared. I am going with Ex Caelis, besides D Wayne, I think her Oaklawn race wasn't so bad and she will be a good price and Mr. Lukas has always been high on her from what I read. Believe it or not I will put a few bucks on Red Cherries Spin. I mean you have to have gonads of steel to go from a 75G claimer to Grade 1 and if Bernie Flint thinks it is possible, so do I.
