Coolmore will sponsor the $1-million GI Turf Mile for 3-year-olds and up on Oct. 8, 2022 as part of the Keeneland Fall Meet's opening FallStars Weekend.
The 2022 Coolmore Turf Mile will mark the 25th year that a Keeneland stakes race will be sponsored by the powerful international operation, which owns nearby Ashford Stud in Lexington. Coolmore sponsored the GIII Lexington S. from 1998-2015 and GI Jenny Wiley S. from 2016-2021.
“Coolmore is a long and loyal supporter of Keeneland from the sales ring to the race track, and we appreciate their strong commitment to racing,” Keeneland Vice President of Racing Gatewood Bell said. “The Turf Mile is one of the most prestigious races in the world, and we are excited to have an internationally respected partner such as Coolmore as its sponsor.”
Keeneland's 17-day Fall Meet will be held Oct. 7-29, followed by the Breeders' Cup World Championships on Nov. 4-5.
