Doesn't seem like it'd really do a whole lot value-wise for her to win the Derby as opposed to the Oaks.

Take the easy money, prove dominance in the group, and then make decisions from there -- it's not like the Oaks is bush league or anything.
If it were my decision, this is what I would probably do.

I wonder how many more phone calls they will be getting for her tonight?
