|}The Glasgow Stakes is a Listed flat horse race in Great Britain open to three-year-old horses. It is run at Hamilton Park over a distance of 1 mile, 3 furlongs and 15 yards (2,227 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in July.

History

The event was formerly contested at York over 1 mile, 2 furlongs and 88 yards. It used to be held in May, and it sometimes served as a trial for the Epsom Derby. Both races were won by Commander in Chief in 1993.

The Glasgow Stakes was given Listed status in 1999. For a period it was restricted to colts and geldings. It was last run at York in 2004.

The race was transferred to Hamilton Park, several miles to the south-east of Glasgow, in 2006. It was reopened to fillies and switched to mid-July in 2011.
