The Victoria Cup was first run over 2 miles at Hurst Park in 1901, becoming a 7 furlong handicap race from 1908. It was run at Hurst Park until the course closed in 1962 and was transferred to Ascot from the 1963 running, where it has been run ever since apart from a single race at Newbury in 1964.[1]
