Amsterdam Stakes

The Amsterdam Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually at the end of July at Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, New York. Open to three-year-old horses, it is a sprint race competed over a distance of 6½ furlongs. A Grade II event, it currently offers a purse of $150,000.

Inaugurated in 1993 as the Screen King Stakes and run at seven furlongs, it was raced at a distance of six furlongs between 1994 and 2005. In 1998 the race was renamed for Amsterdam, New York, a neighbor town of Saratoga Springs in Upstate New York. The race was run in two divisions in 1994.
