First run in 2004, the race for New York-bred fillies and mares was named after the filly who in 1992 became the first state-bred to win an Eclipse Award. Trained by Gary Sciacca for Charles Engel, the daughter of Cormorant won eight times during her championship season as a 3-year-old including victories in the Gazelle, Beldame and Comely stakes. The race has recently been renamed the Johnstone Mile.
