The Barbaro Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race at Delaware Park Racetrack in Stanton, Delaware. Its inaugural running took place on Sunday, July 15th, 2007 in honor of Barbaro, the horse who won the Kentucky Derby in 2006 but who eventually died after shattering his leg in that year's Preakness Stakes.
It is for Thoroughbred three-year-old horses running one and one sixteenth mile on the dirt and offers a purse of $300,000.
A Grade III race, the Barbaro Stakes was previously known as the Leonard Richards Stakes. Notable winners from the past include Cavan (1958), Victoria Park (1960), Buckpasser (1966), Damascus (1967), and Mac Diarmida (1978).
