Singapore Singapore Fillies & Mares: 1.5 kg allowance The Kranji Mile was a thoroughbred horse race held annually in May at Singapore Turf Club. The race was first introduced in 2000. The race, contested on turf over a left-handed course, is a domestic Group 1 event (also recognized as an International Group 3 race by the International Federation of Horseracing) and covers a distance of 1,600 metres (8 furlongs), open to horses aged three and older. In 2018, it was revamped as an invitational race, but since 2020, it has been open to local runners only due to races being conducted behind closed doors.

The 2024 edition was the last to be held before the cessation of horse racing in Singapore.
