The Natalma Stakes is a Canadian Thoroughbred horse race held annually at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Ontario. Run in early September, the G II race is run at a distance of one mile (8 furlongs) on turf and is open to two-year-old fillies. Currently, it offers a purse of $150,780.

Part of the Breeders' Cup Challenge series, the winner of the 2008 Natalma Stakes automatically qualifies for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf.[1]

The race is named in honor of Natalma, the Virginia-bred Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame mare who was the dam of Northern Dancer, one of the most influential sires in Thoroughbred history.

Inaugurated in 1965, the Natalma Stakes was raced on dirt at a distance of 1 1⁄16 miles until 1968 when it was switched to the track's turf course. In 1980 the distance was modified to its present one mile.

The race was run in two divisions in 1979, 1983-1986, 1988. 1990-1995, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2002.

The Natalma is now a Grade II stakes race.
