With Secret Oath's string of four straight losses, many are beginning to wonder whether her best races are behind her. It isn't like she has run horribly.

Nest takes a shot against males in the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes on Saturday for trainer Todd Pletcher, a man who has won this race with the filly Rags to Riches in 2007. Even though Nest belongs in the Belmont, choosing the filly requires faith that the 1 1/2 miles elevates her to a new level. On previous form alone in normal route races, Nest…

Heading into the Kentucky Oaks we had a plethora of fillies in the hunt to take out the race. We didn't have the build up of of say Gamine and Swiss Skydiver but we had plenty of intrigue. My colleague JN Campbell gave the favorite, Nest, a A+ grade in his guide to the race, earlier this week. Todd Pletcher trained the three-year-old and she moved…
