Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 3 Journalists Share Posted May 3 With more than 100,000 in attendance on what became a wet Oaks Day, Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI) reported that all-sources wagering on the GI Kentucky Oaks was $22.7 million, which was up four percent from last year, but betting from all-sources on the full race day card was $73.9 million, which was down 1.9% from last year's record $75.3 million, the company said in a release late on Friday. TwinSpires, the official betting partner of the Kentucky Oaks, handled a new record of $20.9 million in wagering on Churchill Downs races for the Kentucky Oaks Day program, compared to last year's record of $20.3 million. That mark included all settled future wagers and affiliate wagering. Concerning the turnstiles, 100,910 passed through them, which was the smallest tally since 2022 when 100,118 made the races. In 2016 the Oaks record was set at 124,589.
