Notes:
The Arlington Handicap is a thoroughbred horseracing meet that has been taking place since 1929 at the historic Arlington Park racetrack in Chicago, Illinois. This is a grade III event for three year olds and up horses capable of running one and one fourth miles on the turf. Misstep won the inaugural racing meet in 1929. In 1975, it was Royal Giant who set a track record for the Arlington Handicap in the 1 3/16 miles category and the 1992 winner Sky Classic registered a stakes record for the current distance of 1- miles.
