At this point you could probably say the field for the Oaks will look something like this:

Rags to Riches
Magnificience
Panty Raid
Octave
Cotton Blossom
Christmas Kid
Times' Mistress

Folk was listed as a possible prior to the UAE Derby..not sure on her status now. With the additions of Riches & Magnificience the class of the filly crop this year is looking better than the past two years for the Oaks.

I actually love Lemons! (I don't think she is very good though)

I do think Balance is a really lovely horse, she just didn't run a good race that day.

Actually the La Troienne S G3 on Derby Day might be more reasonable for Magnificience...but it was nice to dream for a moment.

I say the 3 yo filly races at Hollywood are most likely the road Bruce Headly will take. He doesnt like to take his young horses on the road. Arson Squad and the "Cat" horse of his are recent examples of that. Although he did sell a % of the filly before this race. Not sure how much Hill and Dale will try and influence Headley to go for the Ky Oaks. He's quite stubborn, so i see her continuing her career at Hollywood. Time will tell..

I would have to agree with you. I don't think there is any chance that she will run in the Ky Oaks. Headley is smarter than that. You don't run a horse in a 1 1/8 mile race coming out of a a 6 1/2 furlong race. I highly doubt she will run in the Oaks.

Sore or short career or whatever, that was a scintillating performance. 1:08 flat for 6F?!?

You gotta get out more often.

Back to the issue at hand, she ran a 109 Beyer.

I don't know that there is another filly in the country in the same class as this girl. And I don't just mean among the 3yo's.

I doubt Headley would go for the Oaks now but I find it very interesting to hear him say that she's definitely NOT a sprinter. He says:

“Her forte is a distance,’ he said. “She’s sprinting because she’s just a runner. When she starts going around two turns, you’ll really she something.. I would have to say because of her workouts, none of my standout fillies ever worked like she did. . .not even Kalookan Queen worked that fast.”

If he's right when he says that's when we'll really see something, this is about as exciting a filly as I've ever seen.
