Nice effort by Summer Applause. She may be something special in the future. :)
Grace Hall leads a very strong cast of 3-year-old fillies in the 138th running of the Kentucky Oaks on Friday. Who will be your selection?Read More

  • KyOaksRunner · A lot of support for Grace Hall and Summer Applause so far. My sleeper is Hard Not to Like, I don't think she'll win but she looks good enough to pick up a peice of the action if one of the top three falter. · 23 days ago ·

Hopefully Summer Applause will win the Kentucky Oaks and Daddy Nose Best wins the Kentucky Derby to give Garrett Gomez the Oaks-Derby double as a jockey.
Summer Applause/Gemologist Double,
With yesterday’s disappointing news that the most talented three-year-old filly in the nation, Princess Arabella, has been prematurely retired due to a soft tissue injury, in addition to the season-long absence of the undefeated juvenile filly champion, My Miss Aurelia, it would appear that this yea...Read More

  • AndyScoggin · What a great group of fillies. Grace Hall was SO impressive in her last race, but then there is Baffert. Could he take down the Oaks/Derby Double? · 39 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · @Andy - Baffert is in a dream spot right now with Princess Arabella, Mamma Kimbo and Eden's Moon, and that's just the fillies! I agree, Grace Hall looked amazing and won with very little effort. · 39 days ago ·

Brereton Jones’s Believe You Can, with regular rider Rosie Napravnik aboard, looked like she would, then looked like she wouldn’t, but finally did win Saturday’s 45th running of the $500,000 Fair Grounds Oaks, the 3-year-old filly counterpart to Sunday’s $1 million Louisiana Derby. Read More

  • Floridaf · You made very good points about Yara and Zo Impressive in regards to some of their previous races. Personally, I think Disposablepleasure is much better than her 4th place Davona Dale finish would suggest; just look back to her gritty win in the Demoiselle. I believe the match-up between Eden's Moon and Reneesgotzip will be the best of the weekend in the 3-yo filly division. Maybe we can get another BL/HDG rivalry going. Great analysis, Brian! · 58 days ago ·

  • BrianAppleton · Thanks Ashley! I agree with regard to Disposablepleasure. The Davona Dale was her first race of the year and I think she will benefit off that effort, but I don't think she'll get to the top two. All of these fillies are coming into the races looking really good. · 58 days ago ·
