The Bow Mistress Trophy is a Group 3 race run at Hobart Racecourse in early February during the annual Tasmanian Summer Racing Carnival on Hobart Cup Day.

The 1200m sprint race is open to fillies and mares and is contested under weight-for-age conditions. Offering $150,000 in prize money, the race is the key support race on the card that also features the stayers doing battle in the Group 3 Ladbrokes Hobart Cup (2400m).

The best out of the Bow Mistress Trophy field each year may back-up at Launceston Racecourse in the Group 3 Vamos Stakes (1400m) run under the same conditions and also for female runners only. In 2016 the Bow Mistress Trophy runner-up I Love It backed-up to win the Vamos Stakes. She also went on to run third in the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m) in Adelaide that winter.

The Bow Mistress Trophy 2020 ran on Sunday February 9, 2020 and was won by the progressive Zargos.
