The Group 1 Sprint Cup is the feature race of the Flat season at Haydock Park, one of Britain’s most picturesque courses.
The Sprint Cup has a special importance as the final top-level sprint race of the year in Britain. With championship honours on the line, the six-furlong contest often brings together the season’s top speedsters for an enthralling final showdown up the Haydock straight.
The race is one of the most valuable sprints in Europe and boasts an impressive roll of honour, including Be Friendly, winner of the first two editions in 1966 and ’67, who is commemorated in a life-size bronze at the course.
Haydock is one of the most accessible racecourses in Britain, it is situated midway between Manchester and Liverpool and within half a mile of the M6 motorway, making it a magnet for racing enthusiasts from north and south.
