Bénazet-Rennen

The Bénazet-Rennen is a Listed flat horse race in Germany open to thoroughbreds aged three years or older.

It is run at Baden-Baden over a distance of 1,200 metres (about 6 furlongs), and it is scheduled to take place each year in May or June.

The event is named after Edouard Bénazet (1801–1867), the founder of Baden-Baden's Iffezheim Racecourse.

During the early 1990s, the Bénazet-Rennen was classed at Listed level.

It returned to Listed level and became known as the Mercedes-Benz-Sprintpreis in 2012.
