Countess Diana (March 22, 1995June 2006) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. As a two-year-old in 1997, she dominated the juvenile fillies division in North America, winning five of her six races including the Schuylerville Stakes, Spinaway Stakes, Alcibiades Stakes and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies. At the end of the year she was voted American Champion Two- Year-Old Filly and rated the best American two-year-old filly for more than fifty years. Her subsequent racing career was relatively disappointing: she failed to win in four starts in 1998 before winning two minor races in 1999.
She began with a six-length win in the Acorn Stakes, then ran in the 1⅛ mile Mother Goose Stakes. In this race, she faced Lite Light, whom she had easily beaten in the previous fall's Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies but who at age three was a vastly improved filly. After the two ran head-to-head from the turn at the top of the homestretch, Meadow Star won by a "lip" in a photo finish that took the officials six minutes to adjudicate. The two fillies finished 15 ½ lengths in front of the rest of the field.

Reine Minoru (, foaled 24 April 2014) is a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse. As a two-year-old in 2016 she showed great promise by winning her first two races including the Kokura Nisai Stakes and went on to be placed in both the Keio Hai Nisai Stakes and the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies. In the following spring she ran fourth in the Daily Hai Queen Cup and second in the Fillies' Revue before recording an upset victory over a strong field in the Oka Sho. She failed to win in thirteen subsequent races, running her last race in February 2019.
However, the event was downgraded back to Grade III in 2004 before being upgraded once more in 2015. The event's position in the racing calendar at Del Mar has lead to the race being a preparatory race for the Del Mar Debutante Stakes which is scheduled usually several weeks later. The race has produced some prodigious young fillies who have gone on to capture Juvenile honors and even progress as older fillies and mares. Notable winners of this event include the 1971 winner, Windy's Daughter whose win in the race was part of a undefeated seven race season.
Nonetheless, she was overshadowed by Azeri in voting for the American Champion Older Female Horse honors despite the fact the two fillies met twice with Sightseek beating Azeri by 11 lengths in the 2004 Ogden Phipps Handicap and Azeri beating Sightseek by 1½ lengths in the Go for Wand Handicap. The 2004 World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings rated the two fillies equal. Following Sightseek's final race on October 9, 2004, her second straight win of the GI Beldame Stakes, trainer Bobby Frankel called Sightseek the best filly he had ever trained. Sightseek was retired to broodmare duty at Juddmonte Farms near Lexington, Kentucky.

The series is divided into two phases, the Kentucky Oaks Prep Season and the Kentucky Oaks Championship Series. The prep season consists of races of one mile or longer that are run between September (when the fillies are age two) and February (when the fillies are age three).

However, due to an outbreak of equine herpesvirus at Sunland Parks, the Sunland Park Oaks was not run, reducing the number of races to 30. Songbird was the highest ranked filly with 190 points, earned by winning the Chandelier (10 points), Juvenile Fillies (20 points), Las Virgenes (10 points), Santa Ysabel (50 points) and Santa Anita Oaks (100 points).

There have been attempts to develop a "Filly Triple Crown" or a Triple Tiara for fillies only, but no set series of three races consistently remained in the public eye.
