The International Stakes is a Thoroughbred horse race run at Te Rapa Racecourse in Hamilton in early February every year.
The 2010 running was sponsored by the connections of stallion Darci Brahma, after being sponsored for many years by Cambridge Stud and Whakanui Stud.
In 2017 the purse was increased to $400,000, making it the richest Weight for Age race in New Zealand.
The race is one of two Group 1 weight-for-age events run on the same day, the other being the 1400m Waikato Sprint.
A Group 2 three year old race, the David and Karyn Ellis Fillies Classic, is also on the same raceday.
