The Premio Carlo Chiesa is a Listed flat horse race in Italy open to thoroughbred fillies and mares aged three years or older. It is run over a distance of 1,200 metres (about 6 furlongs) at Capannelle in April.

History

[edit]

The event is named after Carlo Chiesa, the owner of the Allevamenti National breeding organisation in the 1970s.[1]

The race was formerly classed at Listed level, and it used to be staged in May. For a period it was a 1,600-metre event restricted to fillies aged four or older.

The Premio Carlo Chiesa was given Group 3 status in 2004. It was cut to 1,200 metres and opened to three-year-olds in 2007. It was relegated to Listed status from the 2015 running. The event is currently held in mid-April.
