The Shoemaker Mile is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually as a Grade I at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California (relocated from Hollywood Park Racetrack in Inglewood, California). Raced at a distance of one mile on the turf, it is open to any horse age three and up and currently offers a purse of $400,000. Inaugurated in 1938 as the Premiere Handicap, in 1990 it was renamed to honor U.S. Racing Hall of Fame jockey Bill Shoemaker. ==Historical Notes== In 1950, it ran in two separate races, one in the Spring called Preview Handicap at six furlongs and the autumn race as The Premiere Handicap at seven furlongs. In 1984 & 1985, it was run in two divisions.
