The Kentucky Cup Classic Stakes is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually in late September as part of Kentucky Cup Day at Turfway Park in the Cincinnati Ohio suburb of Florence Kentucky. A Grade II event for three-year-olds and up the Kentucky Cup Classic currently offers a purse of $170000 and is set at a distance of 1⅛ miles on the dirt. With the support of WinStar Farm this race was suspended in 2010 due to economic challenges but returned in 2011.
