Graded Earnings For Kentucky Oaks 128 Probables

A strong and competitive field continues to take shape for the Kentucky Oaks, which will be run on Friday, May 3 at Churchill Downs. The field for the Oaks is limited to 14 3-year-old fillies and conditions for the race have been adjusted this year to give preference to entries based on their earnings in graded stakes races. An overflow field appears unlikely in the 2002 Oaks, but here is a look at the graded earnings of Oaks contenders compiled by Churchill Downs Racing Secretary Doug Bredar:
