Derrick Smith and Michael Tabor’s Rags to Riches, the winner of the Las Virgenes (gr. I) and Santa Anita Oaks (gr. II), remained a strong favorite at the midpoint of betting in Churchill Downs’ 2007 Kentucky Oaks Future Wager.

The Todd Pletcher-trained daughter of A.P. Indy was the 2-1 choice of bettors at racetracks and satellite wagering outlets in North America and Canada when betting concluded on April 13, the second day of the four-day wagering pool. Rags to Riches entered KOFW Pool 3 as the 2-1 favorite.

The second choice at the midpoint of the year’s final pool of Oaks Futures betting, Starlight Stable and Paul Lucarelli’s Octave, also hails from the Pletcher barn. The runner-up in the Ashland (gr. I) and the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (gr. I) stood at odds of 5-1 at the end of Friday’s wagering. Anita Ebert’s homebred High Heels – the winner of Oaklawn’s Fantasy (gr. II) trained by Louisville native Gary Hartlage – was the third choice at 8-1. The mutuel field, which includes all 3-year-old fillies other than the 23 individual horses in KOFW Pool 3, was at 9-1 following Friday’s betting.

A total of $12,232 had been wagered on the first two days of betting in the April 12-15 pool. The pool is scheduled to close at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday.

The 133rd running of the $500,000 added Kentucky Oaks (GI) is May 4 at Churchill Downs.
