{{monthName}} {{day}}, {{year}} {{hour12}}:{{minuteTwoDigit}}{{dayPeriod}}
The Kentucky Oaks 2026 leaderboard has a new no. 2 after Labwah picked up 50 points with her win Friday in the Grade 3 UAE Oaks.
The Charlatan filly, trained by Salem bin Ghadayer, made it look easy in a 7 1/2-length win.
Bin Ghadayer said he would check with owner Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Al Maktoum on whether the filly will pursue the Kentucky Oaks or face colts in the UAE Derby (G2). "She is ready for both options.”
Undefeated Bella Ballerina is no. 1 on the leaderboard with 60 points from wins in the Golden Rod (G2) and Rachel Alexandra (G2) for trainer Brendan Walsh. She's expected to make her next start in the Fair Grounds Oaks (G2) on March 21. The 1 1/16-mile race offers 100-50-25-15-10 Kentucky Oaks qualifying points.
Four points preps are on the calendar for this weekend. The Davona Dale (G2) at Gulfstream Park and the listed Busher at Aqueduct on Saturday and the Honybee (G3) at Oaklawn and Santa Ysabel (G3) at Santa Anita on Sunday. Each offers 50-25-15-10-5 points.
