The Raffles Cup was a Thoroughbred horse race held annually at Kranji Racecourse in Singapore. Contested on turf over a left-handed course, the domestic Group One race was open to horses age three and older.
The Raffles Cup was inaugurated in 1991 at the Bukit Timah Race Course and raced there through 1999 when the track was closed to be replaced by the new Kranji Racecourse.
It has been raced over a distance of:
- 1,600 metres from 1991 through to 2000
- 1,800 metres from 2001 to 2017
- 1,600 metres from 2018 onwards.
Named for Sir Stamford Raffles, founder of Singapore, the Raffles Cup is the second leg of the Singapore Triple Crown. It is staged after the Kranji Mile and followed by the Singapore Gold Cup.
The 2024 edition was the last held upon cessation of horse racing in Singapore.
