An event called the Duke of York Stakes was introduced at York's August meeting in 1895.[1] It was named after Prince George, Duke of York (later King George V.) A middle-distance race for three-year-olds, its winners included Polymelus (1905),[2] Papyrus (1923)[3] and Firdaussi (1932).[4]
A six-furlong handicap sprint titled the Duke of York Handicap Stakes was established at York's May meeting in 1950.[5] It continued until the mid-1960s.[6]
The current 1895 Duke of York Stakes, a six-furlong conditions race, was created in 1968.[7] The first running was won by Hard Water. It was given Group 3 status in 1971, and promoted to Group 2 level in 2003.
The Duke of York Stakes is now held on the opening day of York's three-day Dante Festival meeting. It is run the day before the Dante Stakes.
The race has been renamed to distance it from Prince Andrew, the current Duke of York who faces allegations of sexual abuse, with the year 1895 added, referencing George V, a former Duke of York.[8][needs update]
