The Skipat Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race held annually at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. Contested over a distance of six furlongs on the dirt, it is open to fillies and mares three-years-old and up. The race is during the latter part of April/early May and was named in honor of Skipat, a rangy, 17.1-hand chestnut daughter of Jungle Cove. She won 27 races from 45 starts over six years, earning $614,215 in her career. In 1979 and 1981, she won the grade two Barbara Fritchie Handicap. Her second victory in the Fritchie came after she had been retired, bred and foaled. In August 1989, she was struck by lightning and killed in her stall. Her foal (Skilaunch) was standing next to her, survived, and went on to produce five stakes winners from five foals.〔2007 Maryland Jockey Club Media Guide, page 270 on March 3, 2007.〕 == Records == Speed record: * 6 furlongs - 1:09.80 - Weather Vane (1998) & Big Bambu (2001) * 6.5 furlongs - 1:16.40 - Cherokee Wonder (1996) & Smart 'n Noble (1995) Most wins by a jockey: * 3 - Mario Pino (1995, 1998 & 2001) Most wins by a trainer: * 2 - Richard W.
