Default Oaks News
RACHEL ALEXANDRA (Medaglia d'Oro), winner of the Fantasy S. (G2) and Fair Grounds Oaks (G2) in her last two starts, is set to work on Thursday at Churchill Downs. Trainer Hal Wiggins said the filly would breeze around 8:30 a.m. (EDT), just after the break for track maintenance.

Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin said that both JUSTWHISTLEDIXIE (Dixie Union) and FITZ JUST RIGHT (Seattle Fitz [Arg]) would work Friday morning at Keeneland. Both fillies are owned by West Point Thoroughbreds.

Justwhistledixie, winner of five consecutive starts including the Bonnie Miss S. (G2) and Davona Dale S. (G2) at Gulfstream Park in her last two starts, is considered definite for the Kentucky Oaks. Fitz Just Right ran second in the Bourbonette Oaks (G3) at Turfway Park in her most recent start on March 21.

"She is training so well," McLaughlin said regarding Fitz Just Right. "We were hoping to go to the Black-Eyed Susan ([G2] at Pimlico on May 15) with a fresh horse, but she is doing so well, you have to take a look at it (the Oaks)."
