Run in late April, it is contested on turf over a distance of miles (12 furlongs) and currently offers a purse of $250,000. Named for Elkhorn Creek, a stream running through several counties in Central Kentucky, beginning in 2008 the race is being sponsored by Fifth Third Bank. Inaugurated in 1986, the race was contested at miles through 1995 before being changed to its present distance of miles in 1996. A Grade III event from 1988-1989 and from 1996-2007, it was a Grade II event from 1990-1995 and in 2008 was returned to its Grade II status. ==Records== Speed record: * 2:27.80 - African Dancer (1999) (at current distance of miles) Most wins: * 2 - African Dancer (1998, 1999) * 2 - Kim Loves Bucky (2002, 2003) Most wins by an owner: * 2 - Pin Oak Stable (1998, 1999) * 2 - Kim Glenney (2002, 2003) * 2 - Phipps Stable (2008, 2012) Most wins by a jockey: * 5 - Jerry Bailey (1992, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2004) Most wins by a trainer: * 3 - C.
