History

The event was inaugurated on March 30, 2003, as the WinStar Derby after sponsorship by WinStar Farm of Versailles, Kentucky. The purse allotted was $500,000 which was a major attraction to the track.[1] Previously, Sunland Park has hosted an event known as the Riley Allison Derby. However, the purse offered for the event was a fraction of what the new event. Later the Riley Allison Derby was moved to January. Today it is known as the Riley Allison Stakes and it is a preparation event for the Sunland Park Derby.

In 2005 the distance of the event was increased to <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />1+1⁄8 miles.[2] In 2009 the event was renamed as the Sunland Derby and the purse was increased to $900,000.[3] The fourth place finisher in that event, Mine That Bird followed that effort with a stunning victory in the Kentucky Derby.

For the event's 11th running in 2010, it received Grade III status from the American Graded Stakes Committee for the first time.[4] Since 2013 the event is an official Road to the Kentucky Derby prep race with qualification points offered.

The 2016 running of the Sunland Derby was cancelled due to an outbreak of Equine herpesvirus 1.[5]

In 2019 the event was run as the Sunland Park Derby.[6]

The 2020 and 2021 running of the Sunland Park Derby was cancelled due to an outbreak of COVID-19.[7] The purse for the event was decrease substantially in 2022 to $500,000 when the event was resumed.[6]

In 2024 the distance was decreased to <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />1+1⁄16 miles and the event was moved in the racing calendar to mid-February.[6]

In 2025 the event was downgraded by the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association to Listed status.[8]
