Feels like a road trip this week, from West Virginia to New York to California, and on to the state of Washington via a bettor in Florida. Time to hit the road.

The Alabama for 3-year-old dirt fillies at Saratoga is the marquee race this Saturday, but on the other side of the country, the Del Mar Oaks, for 3-year-old turf fillies, offers a better wagering opportunity. I tried to beat Nest with Secret Oath in the Coaching Club American Oaks last month and am not eager to do that again. Instead, the focus is the Del Mar Oaks, another among the three Saratoga stakes, and a race north of the border.
