Cambridgeshire Handicap

Cambridgeshire Handicap

The Cambridgeshire Handicap is a flat horse race in the United Kingdom open to thoroughbreds which are three-years-old or above. It is run over a straight distance of 1 mile and 1 furlong (1,811 metres) on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket Racecourse, and it takes place annually in late September or early October.

It is the first of two major handicap races to be run at Newmarket during the closing weeks of the season, followed by the Cesarewitch two weeks later. These races are together known as the Autumn Double. The "Cambridgeshire" was first run in 1839.
