2017 Road to the Kentucky Oaks
The 2017 Road to the Kentucky Oaks is a points system by which three-year-old fillies qualified for the 2017 Kentucky Oaks, held on May 5. The point system replaced a previous qualifying system which was based on graded stakes earnings.
Churchill Downs announced the schedule for the 2017 Road to the Kentucky Oaks on September 13, 2016. The only change from the 2016 season is that the Mazarine Stakes is no longer included, bringing the total number of races down to 30.[1]

- Notes
- Non-Restricted Stakes Earnings, used as a tie-breaker
- Abel Tasman was originally trained by Simon Callaghan but was moved to Bob Baffert's stable on March 9[11]
gollark: Though HPKP would prevent that, it's not widely deployed, for good reason.
gollark: I figure you could at least filter most static images on websites if you have software running on the actual device, though.
gollark: You would also need to compile a giant training set of porn...
gollark: It would drain a lot of battery at least.
gollark: Yes, but I don't think you could run a complex neural network at 60FPS.
