Eda will pursue her fifth straight victory for Bob Baffert in Saturday's Grade 3 Fantasy at Oaklawn.

The 1 1/16-mile race offers 100-40-20-10 qualifying points for the Kentucky Oaks.

But Eda will not be eligible for points because, in connection with Baffert's suspension by Churchill Downs Inc., his horses are ineligible to earn Kentucky Derby or Oaks points.

The Munnings filly's last two wins came in the Santa Ysabel (G3) on March 6 and the Starlet (G1) in December. She drew post 5 and will be ridden by John Velazquez.

Dream Lith drew the inside post for trainer Robertino Diodoro. She has 10 Kentucky Oaks points from her win in the Golden Rod (G2) in November. In her only start since, she was sixth in the Rachel Alexandra (G2) on Feb. 19.

Bubble Rock also has 10 Kentucky Oaks points from her win in the Cincinnati Trophy for trainer Brad Cox. She also won last year's Matron (G3) at Saratoga.
