The Chester Vase is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to three-year-old colts and geldings. It is run over a distance of 1 mile, 4 furlongs and 63 yards (2,472 metres) at Chester in May.

History

The event was established in 1907, and it was originally open to horses aged three or four. The result of the first running was a dead-heat.[1]

For a period the race was contested over 1 mile, 5 furlongs and 75 yards.[2] It was restricted to three-year-olds and cut to 1 mile, 4 furlongs and 53 yards in 1959.[3] It was abandoned in 1969,[4] and extended by several yards in 1970.[5]

The Chester Vase serves as a trial for the Epsom Derby. The last participant to win the Derby was Wings of Eagles, the 2017 runner-up.
