History of the Davona Dale Stakes

The Davona Dale Stakes is a prominent race for three year old fillies held each winter at Gulfstream Park. First run in 1988, the race was named in honor of Davona Dale, the champion filly who swept the Filly Triple Crown in 1979. From its inception, the event has served as an important early season test for fillies beginning their three year old campaigns.

Contested at a distance of one mile on dirt, the Davona Dale Stakes has developed a reputation as a stepping stone for horses targeting longer races later in the spring. Its placement during the Gulfstream Park Championship Meet ensures strong participation from top trainers and jockeys, many of whom use the race to evaluate developing talent against quality competition.

In recent years, the Davona Dale Stakes has become part of the Road to the Kentucky Oaks. The race awards qualifying points that help determine the field for the Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs. As one of the earlier stops on the trail, it plays a key role in identifying fillies with the potential to progress toward the division’s top prize.

Throughout its history, the Davona Dale Stakes has featured a number of talented winners who went on to success at higher levels of competition. The race continues to offer fans and bettors an early look at promising contenders, making it an integral part of the spring prep season for three year old fillies.
