Quick Facts Location, Inaugurated ...

The La Prevoyante Handicap is named for the Hall of Fame filly La Prevoyante, who collapsed and died in the unsaddling area at Calder Race Course after a December 28, 1974 race.

Due to track scheduling changes, the race was run twice in 2011; once in January and again in December.

First run in 1976, there was no race the following year but it returned permanently in 1978. It has been competed at various distances:

  • 8.5 furlongs (1+1⁄16 miles) : 1976
  • 9 furlongs (1+1⁄8 miles) : 1978–1983
  • 12 furlongs (1+1⁄2 miles) : 1984 to present

The race was originally run at Calder Race Course, but was moved to Gulfstream Park beginning in 2014. The purse doubled to $200,000 in 2017.[1]
