An ungraded stakes, it offers a purse of $100,000. The Dancing Count is also one of Maryland's Triple Crown prep races. The winner of this race typically moves on to compete in the Private Terms Stakes held in March at Laurel Park Racecourse as well, but winners have also ventured off to New York and Kentucky for their next races.〔2007 Maryland Jockey Club Media Guide, page 88 on March 3, 2007.〕 The race was named in honor of one of Maryland's top stallions, Northern Dancer's son Dancing Count, who sired more than 20 graded stakes winners. His progeny include three-time Maryland Million Ladies winner Countus In. Another daughter Count On Bonnie, was the dam of Wclipse champion Hansel, who won the 1991 Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes.
