History

This race is named for the 374acres nature sanctuary outside Lexington, Kentucky.[1]

The event was inaugurated on 13 October 1999 and was won Dreamy Maiden who was ridden by US Hall of Fame jockey Pat Day to a neck victory after losing the lead in the straight in a time of 1:22.64.

From 1999 to 2001 the event was classified as Listed and in 2002 the event was upgraded to Grade III.[2] In 2004 the event was upgraded to Grade II.[3]
