它是英國最負盛名的超長途賽事，傳統上安排在皇家雅士谷賽期的第三天舉行，這天也普遍被稱為女士日。民間習慣把這場賽事稱為雅士谷金盃，但官方的名稱其實只是金盃（Gold Cup）。2016年適逢英女皇伊利沙伯二世90歲大壽，賽事也冠名為女皇90壽辰金盃^[1]。

歷史

設於1807年^[2]，初期開放予三歲或以上賽駒競逐，首屆冠軍Master Jackey獲得100堅尼獎金，當時英王喬治三世和夏綠蒂王后也在場見證。

俄國皇帝尼古拉一世在1844年國事訪問英國，順道到雅士谷馬場觀看金盃賽事。該年的冠軍馬當時尚未取名，英國便稱牠為皇帝（The Emperor）以答謝尼古拉一世的到訪。作為回禮，尼古拉一世為賽事提供新的冠軍獎座，賽事也改名為皇帝碟（Emperor's Plate）。不過此名只維持了9年，1853年克里米亞戰爭爆發，隨著翌年英國向俄國宣戰，賽事便恢復原稱。

雅士谷金盃是英國長途馬三冠系列的第一關，次關為古活盃（Goodwood Cup, 3219米）、尾關為唐卡士打盃（Doncaster Cup, 3621米）。對上一匹能連奪三關的賽駒為1995年的Double Trigger。

皇家雅士谷賽期有三個永久獎盃，分別是皇家狩獵盃、女皇瓶和雅士谷金盃，獲勝馬匹的馬主可以永久保有獎盃。史上有多匹馬曾不止一次在金盃勝出，當中贏得最多的是詩人作家，連續在2006至2009年四奪此殊榮。
