Molly Pitcher Breeders' Cup Handicap

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Molly Pitcher Breeders' Cup Handicap for thoroughbred race horses is raced at Monmouth Park each year. The race is open to fillies and mares, age three and up, willing to race one and one-sixteenth miles on the dirt. This Grade II event carries a purse of $300,000.

In 1951, the Molly Pitcher was the first race ever to be televised in color.

The great mare Personal Ensign won this race in 1988.
