Love betting against heavy favorites on big racing days and Oaks Day is definitely one of those days. Favorite Bellafina didn't run well last time at Churchill and have to bet against the favorite. Expecting a fast pace but even that doesn't scare me taking the speed of the speed as #8 Motion Express pulls big upset going wire to wire for Kentucky Oaks win.
