The Cheshire Oaks is a Listed flat horse race in the United Kingdom for three-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It is run over a distance of 1 mile 3 furlongs and 79 yards (2,285 m) at Chester Racecourse in May.
It was first run in 1950 and is a trial race for the Epsom Oaks. The two horses to have won both races are Lupe (1970) and Light Shift (2007). The race was downgraded to its present Listed status in 1986, prior to which it was classed as a Group 3 race.
