It is one of the five Classics, which is a group of long-standing Group 1 horse races run during the traditional flat season.
The Epsom Derby is sometimes referred to as the "Blue Riband" of the turf, and it is contested at Epsom Downs in Surrey, with the first edition of the race taking place in 1780.
