We hold the total fund for the Manhattan 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 1:50.50 in 2026, the Manhattan Stakes pays $9,050 for every second of the race, which is 81st of the 611 races in horse racing prize money per second and 41st in the United States.

157 of the 160 runnings name the rider, 157 name the trainer and 156 name the owner, who is the one of the three the prize money actually belongs to. 148 carry the winner's prize for that year, converted here the same way the purse above is.
What the Manhattan Stakes has paid, season by season
The winner's prize, 1869 to 2026
The winner's prize went from $500 in 1869 to $550,000 in 2026, 1100.0 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.
