Race Info
History

The Robert B. Lewis Stakes is a race for 3-year-olds that awards points on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. It is run at a distance of 1 1/6 miles in early February at Santa Anita Park. The race was inaugurated in 1935 as the Santa Catalina Handicap and later was known as the Santa Catalina Stakes, but in 2007 it was renamed in memory of prominent California Thoroughbred owner Robert B. Lewis.

Top horses to have won the Robert B. Lewis Stakes include Sham, Ferdinand, Artax, General Challenge and I'll Have Another. Jockey Bill Shoemaker won the race a record seven times, and three trainers have each won the race on four occasions.
