Historical notes

The Ben Ali Handicap was named for James Ben Ali Haggin, one of America's most prominent owners and breeders, who died in 1914. His horse Ben Ali won the 1886 Kentucky Derby. The most notable winner of the race was Exterminator, the winner of the 1918 Kentucky Derby whose career saw him earn four championships, including American Horse of the Year, plus induction into the United States Racing Hall of Fame.[1][2]

The first edition of the Ben Ali Handicap took place on May 1, 1917 and was won by Colonel Vinnie, an English-bred horse owned by Jefferson Livingston.[3] Between 1923 and 1927 the Ben Ali Handicap was not run. The final edition was held on April 16, 1932 in which Tannery won his second straight Ben Ali Handicap over nine opponents.[4][5]

The Lexington Race Course ceased to conduct racing in 1933.[6] A race of this same name was introduced at Keeneland Race Course in 1937.
