The El Encino Stakes is a thoroughbred horse race run annually at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia California. Open to four-year-old fillies it is raced over a distance of one-and-one-sixteenth miles (8.5 furlongs). The El Encino was inaugurated in 1954 as a handicap race on dirt. From 1955 through 1957 it was raced on turf at a distance of one-and-one-quarter miles after which it was suspended until 1968 when it returned as a one-and-one-sixteenth miles claiming stakes. In 1974 and 1975 it was modified to a distance of one-and-one-eighth miles before being changed in 1976 to its current distance of one-and-one-sixteenth miles and restricted to four-year-old fillies. This lot features the winner’s trophy from 1988 when “Lady’s Secret” captured the race in 1:14:1.
This trophy measures nine inches tall and features a two-handled gold-washed sterling silver cup made by Tiffany & Co. that rests atop a green marble base with an engraved gold plaque reading: “January 18 1986 One & One-Sixteenth Miles Won By LADY’S SECRET Mr. & Mrs. Eugene V. Klein Owner D. Wayne Lukas Trainer Chris McCarron Jockey Time: 1:14:1.” The front of the two-handled trophy is engraved “EL ENCINO STAKES” and those words are centered above the engraved logo of Santa Anita Park. The entire trophy including the base weighs eight pounds; the sterling silver cup alone weighs 506 grams. Noticeable tarnishing is evident on the outside of the trophy cup as well as some slight tarnishing on the engraved plaque. Bottom of cup hallmarked "Sterling Silver" by "Tiffany's & Co."
Includes Letter of Provenance from the San Diego Hall of Champions.
