#KyOaks Day outlook and early SCR

It's Kentucky Oaks Day, so strap in for a long one. First post is 10:30 a.m. ET, with the Oaks going as R11 (6:12) and the last race at 7:23. If you don't get enough today, well, we'll do it all again tomorrow.

The weather forecast calls for mostly cloudy skies throughout the day, with a 50ish-percent chance of rain later in the day. All in all, any kind of doomsday rain-out scenario is a no-go, so that's good. It'll be pretty warm and humid, with high temps to reach the low 80s.

Note that the betting menu for today has been tweaked slightly from "regular" days here at CD, i.e., the early pick-4 is now on R2-5 (as opposed to the first 4). There's also the Oaks-Derby double and the Oaks-Old Forester-Derby pick-3 to consider.

There are no changes to the Oaks. Also of note: Rushing Fall stays in the Edgewood and therefore will SCR tomorrow from the American Turf.

Here are the early SCR for the nine-hour Oaks Day marathon:

R2-(1, 5, 10, 15, 16, 17); R3-(3, 9); R4-(3, 7, 9); R6-(4); R7-(2); R8-(8); R10-(10); R12-(1A, 3, 4); R13-(1, 7).
