Kentucky Juvenile Stakes

The Kentucky Juvenile Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race held annually in early May at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. The event is open to two-year-old horses. Previously a race contested at five and a half furlongs on dirt, it has been run at a distance of five furlongs since 2006.

It first became a Grade III race in 1999. The event was not run in 2005 and six years later in 2011 was removed from the calendar. The event was resumed in 2016 as a Black Type event.
