Icecapade Stakes @ Monmouth Park

Icecapade (April 4, 1969 – November 12, 1988) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse that had success in racing and became an important sire. A multiple Stakes race winner who set a Monmouth Park track record that stood for nineteen years, he was bred and initially raced by Stuart S. Janney Jr. and his wife Barbara Phipps Janney. Icecapade was foaled in Kentucky by Shenanigans, the 1975 Kentucky Broodmare of the Year.[1] Icecapade was sired by the outstanding runner and important sire Nearctic who sired a number of very successful offspring including the most influential sire of the 20th century, Northern Dancer.[2]
