Critérium de Saint-Cloud

The Critérium de Saint-Cloud is a Group 1 flat horse race in France open to two-year-old thoroughbred colts and fillies.

It is run at Saint-Cloud over a distance of 2,000 metres (about 1¼ miles), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late October or early November.

Due to the closure of its venue during World War II, the Critérium de Saint-Cloud was not run from 1939 to 1945.

The present system of race grading was introduced in 1971, and the Critérium de Saint-Cloud was given Group 2 status.

Prior to 2015 the event was run in mid-November and was Europe's last Group 1 flat race of the year.
