Mermaid Stakes (Japan)

The Mermaid Stakes is a defunct Grade 3 horse race for Thoroughbred fillies and mares aged three and over, that was run in Japan in June over a distance of 2000 metres on turf at Hanshin Racecourse.
It was first run in 1996 and had held Grade 3 status until it was discontinued in 2025. The 2006 contest took place at Kyoto Racecourse. The race was discontinued in 2025 due to Fuchu Himba Stakes replacing its schedule in the calendar as well as Ireland Trophy being created to replace the former's schedule.
