Prix de Condé

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Prix de Condé is a Group 3 flat horse race in France for two-year-old thoroughbreds. It is run over a distance of 1,800 metres (approximately 1 mile 1 furlong) at Longchamp Racecourse in October.

It was first run in 1867 at Chantilly Racecourse, and was named in honour of the Princes of Condé, owners of the Château de Chantilly until 1830. The race was transferred to Longchamp in 1907.

Prior to 1985 the distance of the race was 2,000 metres (1 mile 2 furlongs).
