Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf Race History

The Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf showcases the world’s best female grass horses aged three years old and up. The race is an international attraction drawing strong fields annually to the U.S. for the Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The BC Filly & Mare Turf has been run at various distances on the turf course for a purse of $2 million.

Unlike other races at the Breeders’ Cup, what makes the Filly & Mare Turf unique is that it is run at varying distances, dependent on the shape of the hosting track. The race can be held on a turf track covering either 1 1/4th miles or 1 3/8th miles. In 2015 and 2022, the distance was adjusted to 1 3/16th miles at Keeneland and was adjusted to 1 1/8th miles for the 2017 renewal at Del Mar. Most of this simply depends on the venue.

The Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf was inaugurated in 1999, fifteen years following the first running of the World Championships.

Since 2000, the Filly & Mare Turf winner has been named Champion Female Turf Horse at the Eclipse Awards 11 times.

The 2016 edition was one to remember, as race favorite Lady Eli (Chad Brown) and winner Queen’s Trust came flying down the middle of the stretch to pass pace setter Avenge and cross the line in a photo finish. Five post-time favorites have won the BC Filly & Mare Turf with Dank the most recent in 2013.

Eight horses won the Filly & Mare Turf after failing to win any of their three starts prior to the Breeders’ Cup race. Those eight were Starine (2002), Perfect Shirl (2011) Queen’s Trust (2016), Wuheida (2017), Sistercharlie (2018) Iridessa (2019), Audarya (2020) and Tuesday (2022). Queen's Trust is notable as she had not won in six straight starts until beating the favorite Lady Eli.
