The Premio Ribot is a Group 2 flat horse race in Italy open to thoroughbreds aged three years or older. It is run at Capannelle over a distance 1,600 metres (about 1 mile), and it is scheduled to take place each year in November.

The event is named after Ribot, a successful Italian-trained racehorse in the mid-1950s. It was given Group 2 status in the 1970s.

The Premio Ribot is usually held on the first or second Sunday in November. It is staged on the same day as the Premio Roma.
