The Road to the Kentucky Oaks.
Like the Kentucky Derby, horses each year compete for the right to run in the Longines Kentucky Oaks.
However the Road to the Kentucky Oaks is a 30-race series, compared to a 35-race series for the Kentucky Derby. The series awards points to the Top 4 finishers in each race. The Top 14 point earners (the top 20 go to the Kentucky Derby) will earn a spot in the starting gate for the Longines Kentucky Oaks on Friday, May 6, 2016.
Here are the Top 10 horses in the point standings.
