The Daisy Stakes was a Thoroughbred horse race for two-year-olds at Sheepshead Bay Race Track in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, New York. It was contested at a distance of five furlongs on the grass course between 1890 and 1909 with the exception of 1908 when the race was not held as a result of that year's passage of the Hart-Agnew anti-betting legislation by the New York Legislature which would lead to a state-wide shutdown of racing in 1911 and 1912. [1] What would prove be the final edition of the Daisy Stakes took place on June 18, 1910, and was run on the main dirt track.

A February 21, 1913 ruling by the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division saw horse racing return in 1913. [2] However, the deterioration of the Sheepshead Bay Race Track's financial condition was such that it never reopened. [3] [4]
