The Oaks was the right decision though, and she was able to prove to her doubters she can beat anyone in her division. Great races Friday and Saturday!!
I wouldnt be surprised to see RTR take on the boys later on this year. Maybe she can run in the Haskell like Serena's Song!

Don't forget that Serena's Song was in the Derby too. And also that she had beaten colts in the Jim Beam before the Derby. They took their chances against males and she more than held her own.
