Title: OAKS/DBY contender special
Post by: bobl49 on April 18, 2025, 05:02:12 AM
For those of us that purchased the contender pkg, could you post or email us the TG #\'s for Quickick please. That is the only one missing from the contenders. Thx in advance.

Do you have some reason to believe seven fillies ahead of her are coming out? If so let me know who, it will save me work writing the seminar.

Joe Kristofek of Churchill Downs had her as number 14 on THE WORKS SHOW this morning. And at https://www.kentuckyderby.com/oaks-horses/ they show Gowell\'s Delight as #14 and Quickick as #15. I know the entries are fluid so I will sit tight. Thx.

That’s interesting. DRF isn’t covering the Oaks at all, as far as I can tell. If you see any news on this front over the next week or so let us know. We will send late adds if necessary.

I see similar information on kentuckyderby.com - here is their current leaderboard for the Oaks. Assuming nobody makes a U-turn like Owen Almighty, this seems like it is the best estimate of the field. Here is their list:

1. Quietside
2. La Cara
3. Good Cheer
4. Five G
5. Ballerina d\'Oro
6. Tenma
7. Early On
8. Take Charge Milady
9. Simply Joking
10. Bless the Broken
11. Drexel Hill
12. Fondly
13. Anna\'s Promise
14. Gowells Delight
15. Quickick

Joe K said this morning on the works show that Gowell\'s D is out and pointed elsewhere-for what it is worth.

Let’s see what things look like early in the week, we’ll send out any we didn’t put in the special. Highly unlikely anyone new is relevant, this is a solid, deep field.

They’re drawing both Oaks and Derby cards the previous Saturday, which makes things easier for everyone.
