The Musidora Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to three-year-old fillies. It is run over a distance of 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 56 yards (2,063 metres) at York in May.
History
The event is named after Musidora, the Yorkshire-trained winner of the 1,000 Guineas and Epsom Oaks in 1949. Established in 1961, it serves as a leading trial for the Oaks, which is run in late May or early June. The first running was won by Ambergris.
The present race grading system was introduced in 1971, and the Musidora Stakes was given Group 3 status.
In total, eight winners of the race have achieved victory in the Oaks. The first was Noblesse in 1963, and the most recent was Soul Sister in 2023. The 2015 winner, Star of Seville, won the Prix de Diane, the French equivalent of the Oaks.
The Musidora Stakes is currently held on the opening day of York's three-day Dante Festival meeting. It is run the day before the Dante Stakes.
