The Preis der Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe is a Group 3 flat horse race in Germany open to thoroughbreds aged four years or older. It is run at Baden-Baden over a distance of 2,000 metres (about 1¼ miles), and it is scheduled to take place each year in late August.

History

The event was established in 1956, and it was originally called the Spreti-Rennen. It was initially contested over 2,400 metres.

The present system of race grading was introduced in Germany in 1972, and the Spreti-Rennen was classed at Group 3 level. It was cut to 2,200 metres in 1987, and to 2,000 metres in 1990.

The race became known as the Preis der Badischen Sparkassen in 1998, and it was renamed the Preis der Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe in 2001.
