The Beresford Stakes is a Group 2 flat horse race in Ireland open to two-year-old thoroughbreds.

It is run at the Curragh over a distance of 1 mile (1,609 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in September or October.

The event was sponsored by Panasonic in the mid-1980s, and during this time it held Group 2 status.

[citation needed] The Beresford Stakes was added to the Breeders' Cup Challenge series in 2012.

The winner earned an invitation to compete in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf.
