The Brighton Mile was an American Thoroughbred horse race held annually at Brighton Beach Race Course in Brighton Beach, Coney Island, New York. A handicap event for horses age three and older, it was contested on dirt at a distance of one mile (8 furlongs). Inaugurated in 1905,〔(''Los Angeles Times'' - December 18, 1904 )〕 the Brighton Mile was not run in 1908 and 1909 due to passage of the Hart-Agnew Law.〔(''New York Times'' - December 8, 1910 )〕 In 1910 the Brighton Mile was run at Empire City Race Track.〔('' New York Times'' - July 6, 1910 )〕 That would turn out to be the last time the event was run as further restrictions were enacted by the New York State Legislature through amendments to the Hart-Agnew Law〔(''Thoroughbred Times'' - February 14, 2000 )〕 that shut down all racing in New York in 1911 and 1912 and ended horse racing permanently at the Brighton Beach facility. ==Records== Speed record: * 1:37.60 - Charles Edward (1907) (new race and track record) Most wins: * No horse ever won this race more than once.
