Arkansas Derby 2011: Track Conditions At Oaklawn Remain Favorable
There are still no reported scratches for the Arkansas Derby, the 11th of 12 scheduled races at Oaklawn on Saturday, but Daily Racing Form is noting one change:
The lone change at this point is an overweight. Make the No. 2, Nehro, plus 2.
Nehro entered Friday with 5-to-1 odds. As of 4:45 p.m. ET (3:45 p.m. local time), the seventh race hasn’t yet run, so the Arkansas Derby still figures to be a couple of hours away.
