bonuses = The Prix Vanteaux is a Group 3 flat horse race in France open to three-year-old thoroughbred fillies. It is run over a distance of 1,850 metres (approximately 1 mile and 1¼ furlongs) at Longchamp Racecourse, and it takes place annually in late April or early May.

It was first run in 1868 and is named after a family who pioneered the breeding of thoroughbred racehorses in France in the early 19th century. This was started by Gabriel Faulte de Vanteaux (1779–1854) at Saint-Jean-Ligoure in the department of Haute-Vienne, and continued by his son Psalmet de Vanteaux (1822–1893).

The race was run over 2,000 metres until 1952, after which there were several modifications before the present distance was set in 1987. Aside from some wartime venue changes and cancellations the race has remained at Longchamp throughout its history.
