Union Avenue Stakes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Union Avenue is an American ungraded Thoroughbred horse race race run annually at Saratoga Race Course. The race is restricted to fillies and mares 3-years-old and up who were bred in the State of New York. It is raced at a distance of six furlongs on the dirt and offers a purse of $70,000 added.

The Union Avenue, inaugurated in 2004, is named for the famed street in Saratoga Springs, New York near where the track is located.
