The Prioress Stakes is an American Grade II Thoroughbred horse race held annually during the six week meet at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York.

Inaugurated in 1948 at Jamaica Racetrack, it was raced there through 1959 after which it was hosted by Aqueduct Racetrack through 1986. The Prioress was named for the filly Prioress, out of the great mare Reel, herself by Glencoe. In 1858, Prioress became the first American Thoroughbred ever to win in England

The Prioress Stakes was run in two divisions in 1951 and again in 1958.

This race was downgraded to a Grade II for its 2014 running.[1]
