The filly triple crown?

Question

Who's your favorites for the filly triple crown this year and why? The Oaks, Blackeyed Susan, ect. Mainly for the Oaks? or do u just always end up watching it an hour before post time and deciding who to root for then?

Answer 1

There really isn't a filly Triple Crown.  NYRA hosts the Triple Tiara (the Mother Goose, CCA Oaks and Alabama) and Shug McGuahey is pointing Boca Grande to that one.  She is quite a nice filly who should give Rags to Riches a run for her money.

Answer 2

To greyt mom: Yes, there is indeed a Triple Crown for Fillies-what do you think that Ruffian won that made her so famous? The 3 races that make up the Filly Triple Crown are ( or at least were at that time) The Acorn Stakes, the Mother Goose Stakes, and The Coaching Club American Oaks, which is run at Belmont Park around the time of the Belmont Stakes. It may be that the names and location of the races has changed, but that DOESN'T mean that the Filly Triple Crown has vanished altogether. If I can find coverage of these races, I will watch them. I like the filly Dreaming of Anna, and I also like Rags to Riches. Both of these youngsters have lots of talent and will do well, I think.

Answer 3

Well I'm not into filly's and stuff I'm into the colts but I like Rags To Riches she shows that she has enough talent and can beat all them other girls out there.
