Race Info
History

A prep for the Kentucky Oaks, the Fair Grounds Oaks is run at 1 1/16 miles (8.5 furlongs) at the Fair Grounds in Louisiana every March. Given a Grade 3 rating in 1982, it was upgraded to a Grade 2 in 2001. Trainer Larry Jones has won the race three times, most recently with I’m a Chatterbox in 2015 for the most wins of any trainer. Jockey Rosie Napravnik won the race on both her Kentucky Oaks winners (Believe You Can and Untapable) for the most wins by any jockey since 1976.
