Zenyatta Stakes


The Zenyatta Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually near the end of September during the fall meet at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California. The race was run at Hollywood Park in 2010 due to impending work at Santa Anita Park.
A Grade I event since 2007, in 2019 it was downgraded to Grade II. It is open to fillies and mares, age three and older, willing to race one and one-sixteenth miles. It currently carries a purse of $300,000.
The race was originally named after Hall of Famer Lady's Secret. After the 2009 running, it was announced that the race would be renamed the Zenyatta Stakes, on the assumption that Zenyatta would retire at the end of 2009. That change, however, was held off for 2010 at the behest of the mare's connections. For 2010, it was again run as the Lady's Secret Stakes because Zenyatta was in the field, winning the race for the third time. The race was again run as the Lady's Secret Stakes in 2011 but was then run under its new name in 2012.
