Chris McCarron set the record for most wins by a jockey in 1992 when he secured his fifth career win. Legendary trainer Bob Baffert has recorded a whopping thirteen victories at the Oak Leaf/Chandelier Stakes, cementing him as the all time winningest trainer. That being said, D. Wayne Lukas is hot on his tail as he owns nine wins of his own.
The race is featured in the Breeders' Cup Challenge Series, allowing the winner an automatic bid to race in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies.
