I won the Kentucky Oaks with Little Belle. Hmmm...unrealistic, but fun

Picking a closer is almost impossible to win with. You're always going to get blocked by a wall of horses!

Shoot through on the rail, as they (your competition) almost always come off of it with about 2-2.5 furlongs to go. Around the turn, they always seem to move over to the 3 path, giving you more than enough room to wiggle through.
