The Hurricane Bertie Stakes is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for fillies and mares aged four and older, contested over 6 1/2 furlongs on the dirt at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida. Named for the accomplished mare Hurricane Bertie, the race is part of Gulfstream’s late winter and early spring stakes calendar and regularly draws competitive older distaff sprinters.
The 2026 Hurricane Bertie Stakes is scheduled for March 7 at Gulfstream Park with an expected purse of $150,000. It’s one of the graded sprint stakes for fillies and mares on the Gulfstream stakes schedule for the 2025-2026 Championship Meet.
In the 2025 running of the Hurricane Bertie Stakes, Nic’s Style captured the Grade III sprint for fillies and mares at Gulfstream Park, continuing a tradition of competitive distaff speedsters in this event. Previous editions have been won by accomplished older female runners, including Red Carpet Ready (2024) and Frank’s Rockette (2023), making the race a notable target for bettors and handicappers interested in graded sprint form.
