Who Did the Derby Gods Frown On The Most and Why

[Calzone Lord]

Here's Bird Town's Kentucky Oaks -- she won at 18/1 odds after breaking very poorly from post #5 and getting shuffled way back.

Bird Town was coming off back to back 7 furlong races. She set the pace in the Beaumont at Keeneland and was caught very late in her final prep. Her previous route try was a 4th place finish at Calder in the Fla Stallion Series race.

I think she was best in victory this day -- but the bad start and trouble saved her from being on the wrong end of the race shape.
