After severe weather delayed the running of the 2012 Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks (Churchill Downs, Kentucky) by 30 minutes, Believe You Can (orange/green silks), trained by Larry Jones and owned by Brereton C.

In the irons was Maryland’s own Rosie Napravnik, who raced into the history books to become the first woman jockey to ever win the Kentucky Oaks.
