in Orne
. The construction of this stud farm was authorised by King Louis XIV
shortly before his death in 1715. The first horses it accommodated, mostly mare
s and their foal
s, were transferred from the previous Royal Stud at Saint-Léger-en-Yvelines
in 1717.
The earliest version of the Prix du Pin was introduced at Chantilly
in 1883, but this bears little resemblance to the race as it is now. It was contested over 3,000 metres in late October, and it was initially designed to test the aptitudes of horses for carrying unusually high weights. The burden for four-year-olds was 78½ kg (173 lb), while that for older horses was 80 kg (176 lb).
The distance of the race was cut to 2,000 metres in 1904. The event was cancelled in 1906 as an indirect result of public disorder at Longchamp. Three meetings scheduled to have taken place at that venue were transferred to Chantilly, and to make way for the extra races the Prix du Pin was dropped. The race moved to Longchamp the following year, and its distance was restored to 3,000 metres. It was abandoned throughout World War I
, with no running from 1914 to 1918.
The original weight conditions of the Prix du Pin were maintained until 1928. From this point both four-year-olds and their elders carried a basic weight of 60 kg (132 lb). The race was cancelled twice during World War II
, in 1939 and 1940. It was temporarily switched to Maisons-Laffitte
in 1943 and to Le Tremblay
in 1944.
The Prix du Pin's distance remained at 3,000 metres until 1949. This was followed by a period of frequent change, which eventually led to the present version of the race. During the 1950s it was contested over 2,500 metres (1950–51), 1,850 metres (1952–55), 2,600 metres (1956) and 2,000 metres (1957–59). The rapid changes continued into the 1960s, when it was run over 1,850 metres (1960–61), 2,100 metres (1962–63), 2,000 metres (1964) and 1,800 metres (1965–69). The current distance, 1,400 metres, was introduced in 1970.
For a period the Prix du Pin was classed at Listed level. It was promoted to Group 3 status in 2004.
