The All Brandy Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race held annually in Autumn usually in November at Laurel Park Racecourse in Laurel, Maryland. It is open to fillies and mares three-year-olds and up and is raced on turf. It is contested over a distance of 1-1/8 miles (9 furlongs).

The race was named in honor of the Maryland-Bred Champion All Brandy who was named Champion three year-old filly in 1962. She was a considered the queen of the Maryland race circuit and was bred by John A. Manfuso, Sr. the former owner of the Maryland Jockey Club. Manfuso rated her as the "Best Race Horse" that he had bred in over 50 years in the business. Born in 1959 by Double Brandy and Alluring she earned $185,943. All Brandy won the Barbara Fritchie Handicap, the Mermaid Stakes, the Monumental Stakes and the Eastern Shore Stakes and placed in three other stakes races. As a broodmare, All Brandy produced eleven stakes winning foals for Manafuso. All Brandy died at her breeder's Osufnam Farm in 1987 at the age of 28 [1]

The grass race was taken off the Turf and run on the main track which is dirt due to weather conditions in three years; 1970, 1993 and 2004.
