Prix de Barbeville

The Prix de Barbeville is a Group 3 flat horse race in France open to thoroughbreds aged four years or older.

It is run over a distance of 3,100 metres (about 1 mile and 7½ furlongs) at Longchamp in late April or early May.

The event is named after Haras de Barbeville, a successful stud farm established in the late 19th century.

[2] It was initially restricted to horses aged five or older, and was opened to four-year-olds in 1905.

The Prix de Barbeville was held at Auteuil in 1943,[3] Maisons-Laffitte in 1944,[4] and Le Tremblay in 1945.
