History
The race is named for Harry Payne Whitney's champion filly Regret, the first filly to win the 1915 Kentucky Derby. In the Blood-Horse magazine ranking of the top 100 U.S. thoroughbred champions of the 20th century, she is #71 and in a poll among members of the American Trainers Association, she was voted the third greatest filly in American racing history. Regret was undefeated as a two-year-old, she made her three-year-old debut in the Derby, winning in wire-to-wire fashion.[1]
The race was inaugural running on 16 May 1970 and was run over a distance of 6 furlongs and won by Tree Pigeons ridden by veteran jockey Tommy Barrows in a fast time of 1:104⁄5.[2] The Regret Stakes was run at six furlongs for its first twelve runnings (1970–1981).[3] From 1982 to 1987 the race was run at a distance of one mile and from 1988 to 2002 it was run at 1+1⁄16 miles. From 2003 to present it has been run at its current distance of 1+1⁄8 miles.[3]
The event was classified a Grade III event for the first time in 1999.[4]
The event has been run in division four times - in 1974, 1976, 1980 and 1982.[5]
