The Hilltop Stakes is an American ungraded Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old fillies over a distance of one mile on turf held annually at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland.
The nickname "Old Hilltop" was given to the venerable track in Baltimore, Maryland because of a large hill in the infield that was very prominent and gave race goers a 360" bird's-eye view of the entire track.
The race was run on the main track on a dirt surface prior to 1988.
It was also run on the main track in 1995 and 2003 due to a yielding turf and poor weather.
In 1997, Francine Villeneuve became the first female jockey to win the race.
