There are often over 100,000 fans in attendance on Oaks Friday, as the race trails only the Derby and Preakness in attendance for a horse race. The Oaks is also a popular race with many fans who are coming in to the see the Derby, as the Oaks provide a festive way to kickoff the horse racing weekend.
The Oaks is a Grade I stakes race, so the quality of the action on the track is top-notch.
