The Vernon O. Underwood Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race held annually at Hollywood Park Racetrack in Inglewood, California. Raced in late November, the Grade III event is open to horses age three and older. It is contested on Cushion Track synthetic dirt at a distance of six furlongs. Inaugurated as the National Sprint Championship Stakes, in 1990 the name was changed to honor Vernon O. Underwood (1907–1990), a prominent California businessman.〔http://www.youngsmarket.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ContentAttachmentView?storeId=10551&contentName=YMC_B2CAboutUs.html〕 In 2001, H.
