The Christophe Clement Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida. The race is open to fillies and mares, age four and up, willing to race one and one-half miles on turf. The Grade III race currently carries a purse of $200,000.

The race was first run at Calder Race Course in 1976 as the La Prevoyante Handicap, named for the Hall of Fame filly La Prevoyante, who collapsed and died in the unsaddling area at Calder Race Course after a December 28, 1974 race.

The race was moved to Gulfstream Park beginning in 2014. The purse doubled to $200,000 in 2017. In 2020 the race was no longer run under handicap conditions and was known as the La Prevoyante Stakes.

In July 2025 Gulfstream Park's owners, 1/ST Racing and Gaming, announced that the La Prevoyante would be renamed for the late trainer Christophe Clement. Clement was a six-time winner of the La Prevoyante, starting in 1992 when the win was his second career victory in a graded stakes race.

Due to track scheduling changes, the race was run twice in 2011; once in January and again in December.

First run in 1976, there was no race the following year but it returned permanently in 1978. It has been competed at various distances: 8.5 furlongs ( miles) : 1976 9 furlongs ( miles) : 1978–1983 12 furlongs ( miles) : 1984 to present

Records Speed record: (at current distance of miles) 2:24.25 – Alpha Bella (2024)

Most wins: 2 – Coretta (1998, 1999)
