Derby on tap after Baffert swipes Oaks
Cold, wet day at the Downs for Oaks and hopes for a cleaner Derby forecast have not materialized.. The early situation is detailed below and looks impossible now that track won’t be wet by 6:46p feature post. Turf holding up well though and the grass stakes should be terrific. Other than strong rail opportunities, (utilized by Mena for instance on the Wes Hawley 30-1 ALW upsetter), main track was pretty fair as evidenced by the Abel Tasman’s wide last-to-first Oaks rally under Mike Smith.
