Ogden Phipps S. Presented by Ford

A race for fillies and mares 4-years and older, the Ogden Phipps Stakes is held at Belmont Park on the Belmont Stakes undercard. Named after owner and breeder Ogden Phipps, the race was first run in 1961 as the Hempstead Handicap before being shelved until 1970. It was renamed after Mr. Phipps in 2002 with his horses winning the race under its former name in 1988 and 1990. Three horses have won the race twice with five trainers winning it three times each to lead that list. Jockey Eddie Maple is the sole jockey at the top of the winner’s list with five victories between 1975 and 1992.

The race has been won by fillies and mares such as Ta Wee, Proud Delta, Personal Ensign, Turnback the Alarm, Sky Beauty, Heavenly Prize, Serena’s Song, Ashado, Ginger Punch and Close Hatches.
