The Keio Hai Spring Cup (Japanese 京王杯スプリングカップ) is a Japanese Grade 2 horse race for Thoroughbreds aged four and above and run in May over a distance of 1,400 metres at Tokyo Racecourse.{{cite web|url=http://japanracing.jp/en/racing/schedule/graded/list/2019/0511keio-hai.html|title=Keio Hai Spring Cup|publisher=Horse Racing in Japan}}

It was first run in 1956 over 1600 metres and was later run over 1800 metres before being run over its current distance for the first time in 1981. The race was elevated to Grade 2 class in 1984, and was changed to its current name that year.{{Cite web |title=歴史・コース:京王杯スプリングカップ 今週の注目レース JRA |url=https://jra.jp/keiba/thisweek/2024/0511_1/race.html |access-date=2024-05-27 |website=jra.jp}}
