The Astoria Stakes is a long-lived race for two-year-old Thoroughbred fillies run at Belmont Park in early June during the Belmont Stakes carnival. Originally set at a distance of five furlongs, beginning in the year 1940, the event was increased to five and a half furlongs on the dirt. The race currently offers a $150,000 purse.

This race began at Gravesend Race Track in 1902 where it stayed until 1910. It then moved to Aqueduct Racetrack to be contested from 1914 to 1955, and again from 1960 to 1974. It was at Jamaica Race Course 1956, 1958, and 1959.

From 1985 through 1994 the Astoria Stakes held Grade III status.[https://www.equibase.com/profiles/Results.cfm?type=Stakes&stkid=1314 Equibase Astoria race stats since 1976] Retrieved July 13, 2018

Named after a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Queens, it would have been in its 103rd running in 2009, but due to the 2008 financial crisis, the Astoria was canceled by the NYRA as they adjusted races to meet the new Grade I standard purse of $300,000. The race was run again in 2014 as an overnight stakes.
