The Silberne Peitsche is a Group 3 flat horse race in Germany open to thoroughbreds aged three years or older. It is run over a distance of 1,300 metres (about 6½ furlongs) at Munich in late April or early May.

History

The event was formerly run at Gelsenkirchen, and it used to be held in August. For a period it was contested over 1,400 metres. It was given Listed status in 1983.

The race was extended to 1,450 metres in 1998. It was cut to 1,200 metres in 2000.

The Silberne Peitsche was transferred to Cologne in 2002. It was promoted to Group 3 level and increased to 1,300 metres in 2007. It was moved to the spring in 2010.

The race was switched to Munich in 2012. In 2014 the Silberne Peitsche is part of the Goldene Peitsche series. The winner of the race gets an invitation to take part in the Goldene Peitsche held in August in Baden-Baden. It was moved to the Baden-Baden spring festival in later May or early June in 2016.
