Mrs. Revere Stakes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mrs. Revere Stakes is a race for thoroughbred horses run at Churchill Downs in the late fall of the year. It is open to fillies, age three, willing to race one and one-sixteenth of a mile (8 and 1/2 furlongs) on the turf
As a Grade II event, it offers a purse of $150,000.
The Mrs. Revere is named in honor of the filly, born in 1981, that made a name for herself racing in the mid-80s, winning among other graded stakes races, the Regret Stakes.
Her race will be in its 17th running in 2007.
