The Madison Stakes is a Grade I American Thoroughbred horse race for fillies and mares that are four years old or older, over a distance of seven furlongs on the dirt held annually in early April at Keeneland Race Course, Lexington, Kentucky during the spring meeting. The event currently carries a purse of $600,000.

History

[edit]

The race is named for Madison County, the largest county in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky.

The event was inaugurated on 10 April 2002 and was won by the favorite Victory Ride by one length in a time of 1:237⁄10.[1]

In 2005 the event was upgraded from a Listed race to Grade III status, then in 2006 to Grade II.[2] In 2009 it became a Grade I event.[3]

From 2006 to 2014, it was contested on a Polytrack artificial dirt surface. After the spring meet of 2014, the Polytrack was replaced by a new dirt surface.[4]

Between 2004 and 2012 the name of the event carried its sponsor, Vinery, a local Thoroughbred breeding operation near the Lexington area.[2]
