Saw she's scratched from the Oaks so is it all or nothing?

I'll take 6.

Is she definitely out of the oaks?

Hope she gets the 20 post in the derby and goes to the oaks to take money off of Proud Spell. . .

Why all the hate for this one???
What exactly has she done wrong? On top of that, they didn't even draw a full field for the Oaks, so she didn't exclude anyone from there. The owner says he's only skipping the Derby if she gets post 1, 19, or 20. 85% chance she runs, and if she doesn't, we miss out on Halo Najib. BIG F*CKIN DEAL THERE!

Think it's more distaste for the owner than it is the horse. Rick Porter's fan club doesnt seem to have stretched into these ranks.

After that Oaks draw...she goes in the Derby no matter what post.


There goes my 22-1 future wager on her.....................

If she's 5-2 on the morning line in the Oaks.....what should be her morning line odds in the Derby. I say 15 or 20-1.

The Court Vision ribeye matchup bet is still on the table. Payoff Saturday night, and no sleeping in the car this year.

Unbridled's Song has never had a son, let alone a daughter hit the board in a TC race. What makes this filly any different than the other thousand or so UBS's that couldnt do it?
