The Allaire DuPont Stakes is a Listed American Thoroughbred horse race for fillies and mares age three and older over a distance of 1+1⁄8 miles (9 furlongs) run annually in mid May at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland.
[1] In 2002 the event was renamed to the Pimlico Breeders' Cup Distaff Handicap and again renamed in 2006 in honor of the late Maryland horsewoman and owner of the great Kelso, Allaire duPont to the Allaire duPont Breeders' Cup Distaff Stakes.
[1] In 2008 the Breeders' Cup sponsorship ceased and the name of the race reflected the change.
[1] Then it was moved to the Preakness undercard beginning in 1995[2] and currently it is held on Black-Eyed Susan Stakes day.
[5] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States the Preakness Carnival was moved to October but this event was not scheduled until late December at Laurel Park.
