The PCSO Presidential Gold Cup is the premier horse race in the Philippines. It was established in 1973. [1] [2]
The Presidential Gold Cup was established with the support of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PSCO) under the then-chairman Nereo Andolong. It was named after the role of the President, the chief executive of the Philippines. [3] It is also supported by the Philippine Racing Commission (Philracom). [4]
The Gold Cup was initially held at the San Lazaro Hippodrome of the Manila Jockey Club from 1973 to 1978. [3] [5]
From 1979 to 1987, the Philracom took over the organization of the PGC before the PCSO leads the conduct of the horse race again. [6]
