My Charmer Handicap
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The My Charmer Handicap is an American Grade IIIT Thoroughbred horse race run on the turf course at Calder Race Course in Miami Gardens, Florida each year.
Open to fillies and mares three-years-old and up, it is set at a distance of one and one-eighth miles (9 furlongs) and offers a purse of $100,000.
The My Charmer is the first of four $100,000 stakes on Calder’s Grand Slam I card, along with the Three Ring Stakes, the Foolish Pleasure Stakes, and Grade 3 Tropical Turf Handicap.
The My Charmer is named for the dam of Seattle Slew. She also produced the important European sire Seattle Dancer, and Lomond, the 1983 winner of England’s classic race, the 2,000 Guineas.
