The Fairy Stakes (Japanese フェアリーステークス) is a Grade 3 horse race for three-year-old Thoroughbred fillies run in January over a distance of 1600 metres at Nakayama Racecourse.[1]
The race was first run in 1984 and has been run as a Grade 3 level ever since. It was run over 1200 metres as race for two-year-olds in December until the distance and age specification were increased in 2009. The changes meant that the race was not run in 2008.
