The Prix Chloé is a Group 3 flat horse race in France open to three-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It is run at Chantilly over a distance of 1,800 metres (about 1⅛ miles), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late June or early July.[1]

History

The event was established in 1921 alongside the Prix Daphnis, a similar contest for colts. The two races were named after the characters Daphnis and Chloe from a work by the Greek novelist Longus. The story was popularised in France by the translation of Paul-Louis Courier. Both races were originally held at Le Tremblay, and they usually took place in late April or early May.

The Prix Chloé was initially contested over 1,600 metres. It served as a trial for the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches.

The distance of the race was extended to 1,800 metres in 1961. Le Tremblay closed in 1967, and the event moved to Longchamp the following year. It was transferred to Évry in 1973, and switched to July in 1977.

The Prix Chloé was cut to 1,600 metres in 1993, and reverted to 1,800 metres in 1994. It remained at Évry until 1996. For periods thereafter it was staged at Maisons-Laffitte (1997, 2006–08), Chantilly (1998–2002, 2004–05) and Longchamp (2003). It was run over 1,600 metres in 2008.

The race returned to Chantilly with a length of 1,800 metres in 2009.
