The Lee Steere Stakes is a Perth Racing Group 2 Australian Thoroughbred horse race held under weight for age conditions, for horses aged three years old and older, over a distance of 1400 metres at Ascot Racecourse, Perth in November.[1] Prize money is A$250,000.
The event is named after Ernest Augustus Lee Steere, former chairman of the Western Australian Turf Club and owner of the champion Eurythmic.[2]
In 2003 the race was run at Belmont Park Racecourse.[1]
Between 1989 and 2000 the race was held in mid December. Prior to 1989 the race was scheduled during the Perth Cup Carnival held close to New Year's Day.
Note: The event has been raced several times in a calendar year because it was regularly scheduled during the Perth Cup Carnival which is held close to New Year's Day. Hence the event would sometimes be scheduled in late December.
