Ginger Punch vs. Hystericalady vs. Zenyatta on Saturday

I was reading the Oaklawn website barn notes today and it looks like this Saturday's Apple Blossom is shaping up with Ginger Punch, Hystericalady, and Zenyatta in the field.

I am looking forward to this nice Grade 1 matchup this early in the year.

I agree the Apple Blossom should be a great race. I'm afraid the Oaklawn Handicap might not have much, but I'd love to see Brass Hat.

I don't think it matters how many show up for the Fantasy, they'll just be chasing Eight Belles.

heatseeker and circular quay are heading for the oaklawn handicap. buzzards bay was on the list as well. it was in yesterdays paper, i can't remember all of them, but seemed a better renewal then some past races. and the ark derby will have a full field of 14.

Heatseeker, that is pretty funny. Zero chance.

Hollendorfer was interviewed at Bay Meadows yesterday by the board's own Vic Stauffer and his opinion on Heatseeker was kind of a "why can't he run on dirt."

Ha, we'll see.
