The Jaipur Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race for horses four-years-old and up run in mid June at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York. A Grade III race, it's set at a distance of 6 furlongs on turf.
Named after Jaipur, the glorious Pink City of India, Jaipur, the Champion three-year-old colt of 1962 who ran one of the most memorable Travers Stakes on record,[1] the Jaipur will be in its 32nd running in 2015.
From 1986 to 2005 the race was run at 7 furlongs and at 6 furlongs in 1984–1985.
For three years: 1986, 1994, and 1995, it was run in two divisions.
(In 2013, scheduled for the turf, heavy rain forced the Jaipur to be moved to the sloppy main track. Because of the move, the stakes race loses its Grade III status pending review by the American Graded Stakes Committee.)
