The Epsom Dash is a flat handicap horse race in Great Britain open to horses aged three years or older.
It is run at Epsom over a distance of 5 furlongs (1,006 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in early June.
The Epsom five furlongs course, which is downhill until the last 100 yards, is reputed to be the fastest of its kind in the world.
The current world record for five furlongs, 53.69 seconds, was set by Stone of Folca in this race in 2012.
