The '''Amethyst Stakes''' is a [Listed](/source/Listed_race) [Flat](/source/Flat_racing) [horse race](/source/Horse_racing) in Ireland open to [thoroughbred](/source/thoroughbred)s aged three years or older. It is run over a distance of 1&nbsp;mile (1,609&nbsp;metres) at [Leopardstown](/source/Leopardstown_Racecourse) in May.

==History==
The event was formerly staged at [Phoenix Park](/source/Phoenix_Park_Racecourse). For a period it held Listed status. Known previously by sponsored titles, it was renamed the Amethyst Stakes in 1989 and transferred to Leopardstown in 1991.

The Amethyst Stakes was promoted to Group&nbsp;3 level in 2007, where it remained until it was downgraded to listed status in 2025.<ref>{{cite web |title=European Pattern Committee announces changes to the 2025 European programme of Flat black type races |url=https://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/european-pattern-committee-announces-changes-to-the-2025-european-programme-of-flat-black-type-races/ |publisher=British Horseracing Authority |access-date=14 March 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250218122430/https://www.britishhorseracing.com/press_releases/european-pattern-committee-announces-changes-to-the-2025-european-programme-of-flat-black-type-races/ |archive-date=18 February 2025 |date=18 February 2025 |url-status=live}}</ref>
