# Gran Premio Maipú

The Gran Premio Maipú (previously Premio Maipú) is a Group 1 horse race run at Hipódromo Argentino de Palermo open to horses three years old or older. It is run over a distance of 1000 metres (0.62 mi) on the dirt.

## History

The Gran Premio Maipú was first run in 1894 as the Premio Maipú.
When the pattern race system was introduced in Argentina in 1973, the Premio Maipú was rated as a Group 2 race. It was upgraded to a Group 1 race in 1979, a designation it has retained since.
