Difficult to look beyond Blind Luck

Blind Luck won the Grade 1 Hollywood Starlet Stakes by seven lengths in December. When she made her 2010 debut last month, she won the Grade 1 Las Virgenes Stakes by a nose.

One race showed how dominant she can be, the other may have been the only time she is vulnerable for the foreseeable future.

Saturday at Santa Anita, Blind Luck, who is trained by Jerry Hollendorfer, will be heavily favored to win her fourth Grade 1 in the $250,000 Santa Anita Oaks. The race distance of 1 1/16 miles gives assistant trainer Dan Ward confidence that Blind Luck will be tough to beat.
