The Princess Royal Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to fillies and mares aged three years or older. It is run over a distance of 1 mile and 4 furlongs (2,414 metres) on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket in September.
The title "Princess Royal Stakes" was originally used for a Group 3 race of similar conditions and distance held at Ascot Racecourse. In 2008, this race was renamed the Pride Stakes and transferred to Newmarket. Meanwhile, Ascot's Harvest Stakes, a Listed race, was rebranded as the "new" Princess Royal Stakes. The Pride Stakes subsequently returned to Ascot and became the British Champions Fillies' and Mares' Stakes, while the Princess Royal Stakes was moved to Newmarket. It was upgraded to Group 3 status in 2017.[1]
