The Honeybee Stakes is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for three-year-old fillies, contested over 1 1/16 miles on the dirt at Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
The 2026 Honeybee Stakes is scheduled for February 21.
In the 2025 Honeybee Stakes, Quietside scored the victory for trainer John Alexander Ortiz and jockey Jose L. Ortiz. The Honeybee has seen many talented fillies win and go on to compete in top three-year-old stakes later in the year, such as It Tiz Well, Dreams Gallore, and On Fire Baby.
