The Paradise Stakes is a Listed flat horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged four years or older. It is run at Ascot over a distance of 1 mile (3,219 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in April.
The race was first run, as the Chobham Conditions Stakes, in 1995. It was given its current name and awarded Listed status in 2004.
The race title was originally used for a different race, now called the Sagaro Stakes, which is run at the same Ascot meeting.
a General Eliott finished first in 2009 but was disqualified after a banned substance was found in his sample.
