More about the book

Focusing on the rich history of the Kentucky Oaks, this book highlights its significance as America's premier race for three-year-old fillies and its role in Thoroughbred racing culture. Established in 1875, just days after the Kentucky Derby, the Oaks has evolved into a major charity event and fashion gala, reflecting the changing dynamics of the sport. Avalyn Hunter explores the contributions of key figures and the race's impact on women's participation in horse racing, shedding light on a celebrated yet often overlooked event in the equestrian world.
