What the Nation is saying about the 2011 Beaumont (G2)...

Just two weeks and four short days remain until the running of the 137th Kentucky Oaks on Friday May 6th at Churchill Downs. In stark contrast to the current disarray that the three-year-old male division finds itself in with heavy Derby favorites falling by the way side left and right, the three-ye...Read More
  • BrianZipse · I can't argue with your rankings, Brian, but I am leaning to a Kathmanblu, Zazu, and Wyomia box for my play ... I have a feeling that this year's Oaks will be won from well off the pace. · 405 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · Nice Brian, I hope you have a great day at the races! It seems to be the consensus so far from what I have heard that Honey Chile looks like the best longshot running. · 409 days ago ·

  • KyOaksRunner · @mshutty - I agree, it was a bold move for him to take such a good filly off the Oaks trail, not many trainers would have been able to resist the temptation. I'm eager to see how Tell A Kelly runs, she's been out for a little while and will be very fresh. · 409 days ago ·

The 137th Kentucky Oaks on May 6th is stacking up to be one of the deepest and most diverse fields in history. Of the nine fillies on today’s list six are graded stakes winners, three have posted consecutive wins, 7 have never finished off the board in their last three starts and one is undefeated. ...Read More

  • RaTalk_Girl · I love that you are keeping Kathmanblu on the top of the list. I really like this filly. It has been no secret that I think Julien Leparoux will have a great Oaks/Derby weekend. · 418 days ago ·
