Oaks Day -- the other Stakes

[RockHardTen1985]

Tons of speed 2.

Anna Sophia has a very nice pedigree and I'm counting on her to hit the board at odds, or hopefully win it.
She's got a nice stretch kick but only one lifetime win.
Need a price; pretty much all of that 15-1 ML

I'm pretty sure my best bet will be Stephanie's Kitten in the Edgewood. (no real brilliant stuff there) but it will allow me to build around her with some nice pick 3's or 4's. Looks like a total single to me. I'll try for the prices before and after her.

On big days like this I like that strategy, 1 chalk won't ruin a pick 3. I think Plum Pretty can't lose. Yes nothing clever, but 1 price and it will still pay.

Not a stakes race but I love the #2 in R1.

Not me. I think Successful Dan's affinity for CD is the deciding edge. Why is Nate's Mineshaft 5-1 after that last? Been a monster for Smith.

I really dont think MB looks at Beyers when making a morning line.
Beyers are probably the single biggest factor in determining how a race will be bet.
