History

[edit]

The event was inaugurated on 13 October 1969 as the Las Palmas Handicap at the Oak Tree Racing Association meeting at Santa Anita Park over a distance of 1+1⁄16 miles on the dirt and was won easily by the 9/5 favourite Manta with a margin of five lengths.[1] The Las Palmas Handicap was named for the California-bred racing mare, Las Palmas. Foaled in 1929, she won the first ever race at the modern Santa Anita Park on Tuesday, 25 December 1934.[2]

The following year the event was increased to 1+1⁄8 miles and moved to the turf track with Manta winning the event for the second time.[3]

When the grading of races began as a Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association project in 1973 the event was classified as Grade III.[4] In 1983 the event was upgraded to Grade II.[5]

In 2012 the event was renamed to the Goldikova Stakes in honor of Goldikova, the champion Irish bred mare who won the Breeders' Cup Mile three times in succession - 2008, 2009 and 2010. That same year the event was shortened to the one mile distance.[5]

In 2024 the event was downgraded by the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association to Grade III status.[6]

The event has been scheduled at times during the Breeders' Cup. In 2017, 2021, 2024 the event was moved to Del Mar.[5]
