History

The inaugural running of the event was on 1 November 1986 as the Churchill Downs Budweiser Breeders' Cup Handicap at a distance of seven furlongs and was won by James J. Devaney's three-year-old filly Lazer Show who started as the 4/5 odds-on favorite winning by 2+12 lengths ono a fast track in a time of 1:2235.[1] The event was sponsored by Budweiser and the Breeders' Cup with lucrative stakes.[1]

The following year the event was increased to one mile.[2]

In 1988 the American Graded Stakes Committeeclassified the event with Grade III status.[3]

With continued quality competitors the event attracted the race was upgraded to Grade II in 1992.[3]

In 1995 sponsorship from Budweiser and the Breeders' Cup ceased and the event was renamed to the Churchill Downs Distaff Handicap.[2]

In 2000 the event as an undercard race on the Breeders' Cup program was won by the US Champion Two-Year-Old Filly from the previous year, Chilukki who set a new track record of 1:33.57 for the mile distance.[4] Chilukki was no stranger to Churchill Downs having also set the track record for the short 4+12 furlongs distance as a two-year-old and winning the Grade III Debutante Stakes. In 2005 the event was renamed in her honor as the Chilukki Stakes.[2]

In 2019 the event was downgraded to Grade III.[3]
