this weather model seems to the most (can't really say accurate...is there such a thing involving rain}...let's say representative of several weather computer simulations...

So light on/off rain....which means to me...track sealed....means FAST....up close and early will have an advantage both days...

and so far this meet...Churchill has been playing well to inside speed...

We also know in years past....they a really screwed around with the track...a created a DEAD rail on more than one occasion on BIG days...including Derby and last Breeder's Cup there...

am thinking they're hands might be tied tho with the weather concerns...only 50 mile mistake by computer models means a DELUGE...

well...sorry to confuse the issue(s)...and good luck...everybody needs it!

so the Oaks played out as projected....early and inside...held...sealed track

Expecting the same for tomorrow...as THE weather will be VERY close....(that's with most computer simulations)....and they can't take a chance....

Rainy all day, subsiding to sprinkles around 5pm, give or take an hour.
