The Rachel Alexandra Stakes is a Grade II American Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old fillies run over 1 1/16 miles on dirt at Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The 2026 Rachel Alexandra Stakes is scheduled for February 14th during the Fair Grounds winter meet.
In the 2025 running of the Rachel Alexandra Stakes, Good Cheer dominated the 1 1/16–mile test, remaining undefeated with a commanding performance for trainer Brad H. Cox and jockey Luis Saez. Past winners of the race include highly regarded fillies such as Pretty Mischievous and Clairiere, many of whom have used the Rachel Alexandra as a springboard toward further stakes success.
