Churchill Downs: Kentucky Oaks 2016 best bet

Churchill Downs Race 11

12 - Cathryn Sophia

The 2016 Kentucky Oaks is a competitive field of 14 and Cathryn Sophia has separated herself from the pack. This 3-year-old filly has not run a bad race in her career and has proven herself as one of the top fillies this year. Cathryn Sophia holds the highest speed figure in the field, with a dominating performance at Gulfstream in February, and love the fact she has the tactical speed to stay close to the lead before making her move. The 1 1/8 mile distance should be perfect, with sire Street Cry in the family. Trainer John Servis has her toes after a beautiful 5F :59 workout at Keeneland on April 23. Look for Cathryn Sophia to get a great trip, prove her figures, and roll home in the 2016 Kentucky Oaks.
