Typical Keeneland conveyer belt today. This track is so damn quirky but I love it because it will have an impact on the KY Oaks. If Balance had won today she would have been 4-5 in the Oaks.

Losing today will have her at 2-1 or 5-2 which will be like Christmas in May. I\'m telling you right now, if Balance walks into the Gate on Oaks Day, she wins by 5.

I\'m taking a second out on the house just to slap it on her pretty nose!

If she runs....

\"However, Hofmans was non-committal about the Oaks for Balance, saying she would return to regroup at her Southern California base.\"   (DRF)

I had hope that she would take after her sire and not like the Keeneland surface, and then planned to play her in the current Oaks pool.  But after reading this, I will wait until Oaks Day just to make sure she is entered!

Like you say, she will still be 2 to 1 or higher...

Hoffmans is a little shellshocked after the day he had.

Send him a tape of Summerlys race from last year.
