The Southampton Handicap was a Thoroughbred horse race first run on October 19, 1904 at Jamaica Race Course in Jamaica, New York. A race for three-year-old horses it was contested on dirt over a distance of a mile and a sixteenth through to its last edition on May 10, 1932. There was no race held in 1908, 1910-1912, and 1914 due to the effects of the 1908 passage of the Hart-Agnew anti-betting legislation by the New York Legislature.
For 1913 only, the Southampton Handicap was hosted by Belmont Park.
