History
Inaugurated at Calder Race Course in 1982, the race was part of Calder's Florida Stallion Stakes series through 2013 after which Calder's racing operations were leased to the Stronach Group, operators of Gulfstream Park.[3]
Named in honor of U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee Desert Vixen, it is the first and shortest of the three Gulfstream Park FBTOA races exclusively for this specific age and gender group of registered Florida-breds who are from a Florida Sire Stakes eligible stallion. [4] Run between the beginning of August and the end of September, the Desert Vixen Stakes precedes the Susan's Girl Stakes at 7 furlongs and the My Dear Girl Stakes at 1 1/16 miles (8.5 furlongs).[5]
