Lyre (2019), Catchy (2017), Earthquake (2014) and Alinghi (2004) all captured the Blue Diamond Stakes after winning this race.
Outstanding fillies Guelph (2013), Samaready (2012), Rostova (2009), Alinghi (2004), Halibery (2003) and Courtza (1999) have all won this event and the level weights playing field provides a clear advantage to the better fillies engaged.
