The Kilternan Stakes, currently known for sponsorship purposes as the Paddy Power Stakes, is a Group 3 flat horse race in Ireland open to thoroughbreds aged three years or older.
It is run at Leopardstown over a distance of 1 mile and 4 furlongs (2,414 metres) and it is scheduled to take place each year in September.
[1] It returned to its usual late-October fixture the following year, but a similar race called the Foxrock Stakes was retained in September.
It was named after Kilternan, a village located to the south of Leopardstown.
In 2014 it became part of the Irish Champions Weekend fixture and the distance was increased to 1 mile 4 furlongs from its previous distance of 1 mile 2 furlongs.
