Info

The Gander Stakes is an ungraded stakes race for New York bred Thoroughbred race horses, three-years-old and older, run at Belmont Park or at Aqueduct Racetrack. The Gander serves as a prep for the $100,000 Evan Shipman Handicap running at Belmont Park which is restricted to New York breds.
Inaugurated in 2005, and named for one of New York state’s favorite home-breds and racing millionaires, Gander, the race is set at one mile and 70 yards (1 and 1/16 miles) and offers a purse of $70,000 added.
This race is not listed on either the official Aqueduct or Belmont sites as running from 2009 to 2015.
The Gander Stakes was run at Aqueduct Racetrack in 2016.
