Vauxhall Trial Stakes

The Vauxhall Trial Stakes was an Irish Thoroughbred horse race run annually at Phoenix Park Racecourse in Dublin. Raced on turf, the seven furlong event was open to three-year-old horses. A Group III event, the race ended when financial difficulties resulted in the track closing for racing in late 1990.
