The Grade 3 Forward Gal Stakes at Gulfstream Park was the latest Kentucky Oaks 2026 prep race and On Time Girl overcame a troubled trip to win by 3 lengths at seven panels on Jan. 31. A total of fourteen Oaks points races have been run so far, and in this report, I will recap the Forward Gal, update the points standings, and share my top five Oaks fillies.
I cover all of the Kentucky Oaks points race on my Runaway Horse YouTube channel, and through the first 14 points races, my top choices have 6 wins, 3 runner-up finishes, and 4 show finishes. There are three Oaks Points races this week, the rescheduled Martha Washington on Feb. 6 (Oaklawn), the Suncoast on Feb. 7 (Tampa Bay), and the Las Virgenes on Feb. 8 (Santa Anita).
Kentucky Oaks 2026 Points Race Recaps
Grade 3 Forward Gal at Gulfstream Park (1-31-26): Mythical was the second betting choice and she set a pressured pace before fading in the lane. On Time Girl ($4.20) chased from second early, got shuffled back to fourth, and she moved out, found running room in the stretch, and finished with good energy to win by 3 lengths (82 BSF). Imperatrice pressed from the outside post, led, and held the place by a neck over Sneaky Good. Hollen Drive was best of the rest in fourth and was followed by Mythical, Tessellate, Secane, and Music Burst. Irad Ortiz, Jr. rode the winner for Brad Cox. Fractions: 22.96, 46.05, 1:11.79, 1:24.59.
