D J Stable and Cash Is King LLC's Eclipse Award-winning 2-year-old filly Jaywalk (Cross Traffic), a latest third in the GI Ashland S. at Keeneland Apr. 6, turned in her final prep for next Friday's GI Kentucky Oaks by working five-eighths of a mile in a smart :59.20 over the Keeneland main track. The move was originally scheduled to take place Friday, but was pushed forward owing to the threat of rain in Central Kentucky. Jaywalk galloped out six furlongs in 1:12.60.
“That was exactly what we wanted,” Tyler Servis, son of trainer John Servis, told the Keeneland press office. “She left [the five-
furlong marker] like a bear. She left there running. I had her in :11 3/5 for the first eighth. She looked like she wanted to do it. She galloped out really well.”
Jaywalk will make the short trip over to Churchill by van Sunday around noon after training at Keeneland that morning. Javier Castellano has the call in the Oaks.
