John C. Mabee Handicap
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The John C. Mabee Handicap is an American Thoroughbred horse race contested each summer at the Del Mar Racetrack in Del Mar, California. The race, known as the Ramona Handicap through 2001, is an important prep race for the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf. It's run on the turf for fillies and mares, age three or up, at a distance of one and one-eighth miles.
The Mabee carries a purse of $400,000 (beginning in 2005) and is a Grade I event.
