Oaks and Derby Handicapping

[HaloWishingwell]

I stand to my first post since it could make a difference to the final outcome of the race. I think not much at this point will change how the race unveils early on. Getting post one won't suddenly bless Done Talking with speed to the front.

Steve has mentioned this before somewhere...And I couldn't agree more.

I can't make heads or tails of The Oaks. Every logical contender appears to have the exact same front running style. I suppose Grace Hall has shown some ability to sit and wait and maybe Summer Applause. Any thoughts on how this race will develop?

Summer Applause will get the set-up that she didn't get last out, but nearly won anyway.

Meaning I like Summer Applause better for the Oaks than I do Believe You Can.

Keep hearing that Union Rags is not bred for the distance.Does anyone know if any of Dixie Union's progeny has run or even attempted to go 1 1/4?

Summer Applause got a HUGE setup last time and somehow still lost.
