The Frank Gomez Memorial Stakes was an American Thoroughbred horse race open to two-year-horses of either sex that was held annually at Calder Race Course in Miami Gardens, Florida from 1972 through 2013.
[1] Inaugurated as the Criterium Stakes, following the December 23, 2007 death of Calder Race Course Hall of Fame trainer Frank Gomez, the race was renamed in his honor.
In 2000, the race became part of the "Summit of Speed" stakes series.
In 2013, National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame inductee and future U. S. Triple Crown winner Mike Smith rode Yes I'm Lucky to victory in what would turn out to be the final running of the Frank Gomez Memorial Stakes.
The following year the "Summit of Speed" stakes series was canceled when Calder's racing operations were leased to the Stronach Group, operators of Gulfstream Park, who did not pick up this race when the series resumed in 2015.
