Japan Breeding Farms' Cup Sprint (ジャパンブリーディングファームズカップスプリント) is an annual race held on "JBC day", which is usually November 3, or the national holiday Culture Day . This race and the JBC Classic were started in 2001. These were established following the American Breeders' Cup .
As of 2023, only four horses that have won the race belong to NAR, the organization supervising horseracing administrated by the local government. The rest of the winners belong to the JRA .
There is no other domestic or international grade 1 sprint race on dirt in Japan other than this race.
