Penn Mile Stakes

The Penn Mile Stakes is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for horses aged three years old, held over a distance of one mile on the turf annually in late May or early June at Penn National Race Course at 7:30pm EST, Grantville, Pennsylvania. The event currently carries a purse of $400,000.

History
With the influx of additional funds from the Penn National Race Course turning itself to a Racino the club ventured in adding higher stakes races. The race was inaugurated in 2013 with a stakes purse of $500,000.

In 2015 the event was classified as Grade III and in 2017 was upgraded to Grade II.

The event in 2020 was not held due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States with Penn National closed when the event was to be scheduled.

Due to weather conditions and the state of the track the 2021 running was moved to the dirt and the event was downgraded to Grade III.

In 2024 the event was downgraded by the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association to Grade III status.
