Excellent coverage about Oaklawn, interesting background, crisp writing....will look forward to reading a lot more from Eric. Love the "historian" aspect to your history, Eric. I never tire of learning about this sport, especially from an historical perspective.

Oh, and I forgot to mention the roll back the clock 50 cent famous corned beef sandwiches on opening Saturday! So popular (and delicious) since the 100th anniversary seasaon that they've stuck with this promotion. Has to be the best racetrack food of all time!!!

Looking forward to the Oaklawn meet! It may begin and end with Derby talk, but there's no denying the prestige of some of the stake races on tap.

Has been the NOW place for years. One of the best meets of the winter.

My only gripe with OP is that many top jockeys don't like to ride there early in meet due to frigid temps, so they don't have a top jock colony. At least, not like when I was a kid with Pat Day, Randy Romero, Larry Snyder, Chris McCarron and Jerry Bailey. Defections include Gomez, Borel, Albarado...

I love Oaklawn. Both Lawyer Ron and Curlin, two of my faves came from their before the Derby. Also wise to note how often a horse coming from Arkansas runs in the top 4 finishers in the Derby. 2004 Smarty wins, 2005 Afleet Alex third, 2006 Stepanwolfer third, 2007 Curlin third, 2008 Eight Bells second, 2009 Papa Clem 4th, 2010 Super Saver won, 2011 Nehro second. It is most certainly a hot track that has probably one of the best and most consistent Derby records in the last decade.

From an ESPN article: "At Oaklawn Park, there will never be a Cougar Day, a Mike vs. Chantal match race, or an advertising campaign featuring exotic dancers; there will never be night racing, or camel racing or ostrich racing. At Oaklawn Park, horses and racing matter. "

Not sure how many of you frequent Oaklawn, so while there won't be a "Cougar Day" per se, there are plenty of eligible ladies and dudes hanging around the second level sports bar. Seriously though, it's an extremely social place where people do care about the horses.
