The Kentucky Oaks is held every year on the Friday before the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. This year it takes place on May 1. The race was founded by Lewis Clark, Jr., in 1875. The Kentucky Oaks, along with the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, is one of the most popular thoroughbred horse races in the United States. The Longines Kentucky Oaks is strictly a female horse race for three-year-old fillies. It remains one of the oldest continuously contested sporting events in history.
