What is the Coronation Cup?
The Coronation Cup is a Group 1 contest for runners aged four and up over a distance of a mile and a half. It is traditionally run on the first day of the Epsom Derby meeting, Epsom Oaks Day, which traditionally takes place on a Friday in late May or early June. The distance of the race is the same as both the Oaks and the Derby, and some top-class names have won the race in recent years, including Cracksman (2018) and St Nicholas Abbey (2011, 2012 and 2013).
The race was first run in 1902 to celebrate the crowning of King Edward VII. As you would expect for a Group 1 contest, Aidan O'Brien has a terrific record in the race, and is the winning most owner in the history of the Coronation Cup, with eight wins; Yeats (2005), Scorpion (2007), Soldier Of Fortune (2008), Fame And Glory (2010), St Nicholas Abbey (2011, 2012 and 2013) and Highland Reel (2017).

Who is the most successful jockey in the Coronation Cup?
Legendary jockey Lester Piggott lays claim to no less than nine wins in this race, with Zucchero (1953), Nagami (1959), Petite Etoile (1960, 1961), Park Top (1969), Roberto (1973), Quiet Fling (1976), Sea Chimes (1980), and Be My Native (1983).
Who is the most successful trainer in the Coronation Cup?
