Brandon Stauble’s Workout of the Day

Race 10: 4/29- #7 Toinette had her ears pricked down the lane awaiting cue from rider, last 1/4 in a strong 22.3 galloping out full of run.

Kevin Kerstein’s Play of the Day

Race 11: On paper the Longines Kentucky Oaks (GI) is a two-horse race between Monomoy Girl and Midnight Bisou. Both of these fillies are very talented but #2 Coach Rocks could upset their party for Churchill Downs’ all-time leading trainer Dale Romans. Coach Rocks took seven tries to win her first race but improved in every start. If Coach Rocks can take another step forward from her Oaks victory she could be tough to beat.

Suggested Play: #2 Coach Rocks
