Gold Cup

The Gold Cup is a prestigious horse race held annually, typically in the United Kingdom, featuring top-quality racehorses competing over a long distance, often around 2 miles. It is part of the Royal Ascot meeting and is renowned for its rich history and tradition. The race attracts notable trainers, jockeys, and spectators, and winning the Gold Cup is considered a significant achievement in horse racing. It tests the stamina and endurance of stayers—horses that excel over extended distances—making it a highlight in the racing calendar.
