We hold the total fund for the Alabama Stakes and no separate winner's cheque. What the winner takes is a rule the racecourse sets rather than a national one, and it varies race by race.
Run in 2:04.87 in 2026, the Alabama Stakes pays $4,805 for every second of the race, which is 151st of the 611 races in horse racing prize money per second and 78th in the United States.

The winner's prize went from $2,650 in 1872 to $330,000 in 2026, 124.5 times more. Every year is converted at today's rate, so the line is the money the race puts up rather than the money the exchange rate did.
