Presently the only official Triple Tiara is the three race series in New York; they are: the Acorn Stakes, run at Belmont Park at a distance of 1+1⁄16 miles (1.7 km), the Coaching Club American Oaks, run at Saratoga Race Course at a distance of 1+1⁄8 miles (1.8 km) and the Alabama Stakes, run at Saratoga at a distance of 1+1⁄4 miles (2.0 km).
In 2003, the Triple Tiara was reconfigured for a time to consist of the Mother Goose Stakes, Coaching Club American Oaks, and the Alabama Stakes, a 1+1⁄4 miles (2.0 km) race held in August at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York.
The Triple Tiara is now a set of three horse races in New York which is open to three-year-old fillies.
The three races that compose the series now are The Acorn Stakes, run at Belmont Park at a distance of 1 mile, The Coaching Club American Oaks, run at Saratoga Race Course at a distance of 1+1⁄8 miles (1.8 km) and The Alabama Stakes, also run at Saratoga at a distance of 1+1⁄4 miles (2.0 km).
Using the Mother Goose would also allow the New York Racing Association to keep the New York Triple Tiara (the Acorn Stakes, the Coaching Club American Oaks, and the Alabama Stakes) in place without interfering with the three National races.
A prime reason for favoring the National Triple Tiara is that the Kentucky Oaks is the most popular races for fillies and draws one of the biggest crowds of any stakes races throughout the year (behind only the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes).
