The Singapore Derby is a thoroughbred horse race held annually in mid July at the Singapore Turf Club. Contested on turf over a left-handed course, the domestic Group 1 race is run over a distance 1,800 metres (9 furlongs) and is open to four-year-old horses only.
Inaugurated in 1880 at the Serangoon Road Race Course at Farrer Park, it was raced there until 1910 at which time it was cancelled. The Singapore Derby was revived in 1959 under the auspices of the Singapore Turf Club and hosted by the Bukit Timah Race Course through 1999 when the track was closed to be replaced by the new Singapore Turf Club.
Since 1959 the race has been contested at various distances:
2414 metres : 1959-1965, 1968, 1970–1975
2,425 metres: 1966
2,011 metres: 1967, 1969
2,400 metres (about): 1976
2,400 metres: 1977-1997
2,000 metres (about): 1998
2,000 metres: 1999-2017
1,800 metres: 2018 to present
At the time the race was modified to a distance of 2,000 metres in 1998. The conditions were also changed, making it open to four-year-old domestic horses only.
