History

The inaugural running of the event was split into two divisions as the eight and ninth race in the program on 9 May 1984.[1]

The event was named after the winning mare Herecomesthebride[2] who in her career won twelve races from sixteen starts including the 1977 Bonnie Miss Stakes (now the Grade II Gulfstream Oaks).

The event was not held in 1990 and 1991.[3] The event was upgraded to Grade III in 1998.[4]

The event was not held in 2008.[5]

However, the 2015 running was switched to dirt due to weather conditions and was ungraded.[6]

Of the more notable winners of this event was Dayatthespa. During her three-year-old campaign she began winning this event and four more including the Grade I Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup. Later in her career she would win the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and be crowned US Champion Female Turf Horse.
