Half to Adriano, his dam is a G1 winner and his 2nd dam is half to Bet Twice.

Side note/question: I saw that Tap It Rich's dam Golden Treat was 4th in the KY Oaks, but I checked to see who else was in it and realized the 1992 KY Oaks only had 6 fillies in the race. What's up with that?

There was definitely a time when the race did not carry the prestige that it does now, thats my opinion, now it seems like its the definitive three year old race ahead of the Alabama, think it used to be reversed.
