Providencia Stakes

The Providencia Stakes is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old fillies over a distance of one and one-eighth miles on the turf course scheduled annually in April at Santa Anita Park.

Inaugurated in 1981, it has been run at 1+1⁄8 miles for most of its existence.

In 2008, this race was upgraded from a Grade III to a Grade II, with its purse increased from $100,000 to $150,000.

It has been downgraded to a Grade III again although its purse remains the same.
