History

edit

The event is named after Lieurey, a commune located in the Eure department in the Upper Normandy region of France. It was established in 1972, and it was initially contested over 2,400 metres. It was cut to 1,600 metres in 1977, and given Listed status in 1987.

The Prix de Lieurey was sponsored by Haras des Capucines in 2004, and by Shadwell from 2005 to 2010. It was promoted to Group 3 level in 2009.
