The Summer Cup is a National Hunt handicap steeplechase in England which is open to horses aged five years or older. It is run at Uttoxeter over a distance of 3 miles, 2 furlongs and 13 yards (3319 metres) and is scheduled to take place each year in late June or early July.

The race was first run in 2000 as the Summer National over a distance of about 4 miles. The distance was reduced to three and a half miles in 2009. The race was rebranded as the Summer Cup and reduced further to its current distance in 2012. Prior to 2023 it carried Listed status.
