The Pegasus World Cup Filly and Mare Turf Invitational is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for invited fillies and mares that are four years old or older, over a distance of 1+116 miles on the turf held annually in January at Gulfstream Park, Hallandale Beach, Florida. The event currently carries a purse of $500,000.

History[]

The race was inaugurated in 14 March 2001 as the Marshua's River Stakes over a much shorter distance of about 5 furlongs[1] and named after the winning mare Marshua's River[2] who won nine races in her career including the Grade III Suwannee River Stakes.

The event has been run at the current distance of 1+116 miles since 2005.[3]

The event was upgraded to a Grade III event in 2011.[4]

In 2021 the event was run over a distance of 1 mile.[3]

In 2022 Gulfstream Park administration rebranded the event as part of the Pegasus World Cup and renamed the event as Pegasus World Cup Filly and Mare Turf Invitational with a significant increase in the purse to $500,000.[5] The distance of the event was reverted back to 1+116 miles.
