Top 5 reasons to watch and wager on the Woodbine Oaks

July 19, 2024

Big field = Big betting opportunities

With 14 horses going postward in Saturday’s $500,000 race for Canada’s best 3-year-old fillies, there are several intriguing hopefuls, including live longshots who deserve a second look.

Payout parlay power

Last year’s Oaks produced impressive payouts across the board. Here are some of the more noteworthy payouts from last year.

$1 Exactor – $38.10

20-cent Superfecta – $1,075.73

20-cent Trifecta – $120.29

Odds in your favour

With no clear-cut favourite for this year’s Oaks, odds are, pun intended, any filly could step up and grab the spotlight. Hit the right longshot and it could make for a nice return.

An All-Attard ticket?

If you are looking for a unique angle for your triactor and superfecta wagers, why not box all five of trainer Kevin Attard’s horses? The trainer, who has two Oaks wins to his name, will send out the quintet of Caitlinhergrtness, Inudation, My Girl Della, Vucchella, and War Painter.

Eyes on the prize

Keep a watchful eye on the fillies when they come out on the track. Who is on their toes? Who looks fractious? Seeing how the horses look in post parade might offer some insight on who is ready to bring their A-game in the Oaks.
