L and M Partners' RACHEL ALEXANDRA (Medaglia d'Oro) galloped 1 1/2 miles

under exercise rider Rudy Gallegos before the renovation break at Churchill

Downs on Sunday.

The bay miss is considered the probable favorite for Friday's Kentucky Oaks

(G1), and is scheduled to work a half-mile after the renovation break Monday

morning with jockey Calvin Borel up.

"I am looking for her to go in about :48 and maybe let her gallop out,"

trainer Hal Wiggins said.

Wiggins, whose horses occupy most all of Barn 30, will have plenty to keep

him busy this week along with Rachel Alexandra.

"I've got one in on Tuesday, I'm entering one for Thursday and we're running

Abbott Hall (El Corredor) in the Edgewood on Friday," Wiggins said.

Mike Rutherford's FLYING SPUR (Giant's Causeway) also galloped on Sunday

morning, going 1 1/4 miles with exercise rider Joanna Trout aboard before the

renovation break. Trainer Bill Mott indicated Flying Spur, who was runner-up in

the Fair Grounds Oaks (G2) to Rachel Alexandra, would work Monday morning,

probably before the renovation break.

Garrett Gomez, winner of the 2007 Kentucky Oaks on Rags to Riches, has the

riding assignment on Flying Spur.

West Point Thoroughbreds' JUSTWHISTLEDIXIE (Dixie Union) walked the shedrow

at Barn 42 for a second consecutive morning. The Kiaran McLaughlin trainee

worked a half-mile in :49 on Friday and is scheduled to go back to the track on

Monday morning.

Julien Leparoux, who rode Justwhistledixie to victory in the Bonnie Miss S.

(G2) on March 27 in her most recent start, has the Oaks riding assignment.

J. Paul Reddam's NAN (High Yield) returned to the track for a light jog under

exercise rider Jose Castanon after walking the shedrow on Saturday. The Craig

Dollase trainee had her final pre-Oaks work on Friday with a five-furlong drill

in company in 1:00 1/5.

Corey Nakatani, a two-time Kentucky Oaks winner, has the riding assignment on

Nan.
