There is a 0.00% chance I'd start her in the Oaks. The New York races are just as prestigious and the Breeders Cup Distaff is far more prestigious than the Oaks.

Pletcher is kid-gloving Dreaming of Julia into this race. Her final work was sundial slow under a full nelson. It looked more like a gallop than a work.
I agree with you and think a lot of other people do to...precisely why most think she fits in the Derby which appears to have a general lack of pace.

Nevertheless, does this mean you're endorsing Pure Fun in the Oaks?
