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

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

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.
