The race was established in 1963. The first running took place in March 1963, but then moved to an October/November date. It was awarded Listed status in 2003. It was re-classified as a Premier Handicap from the 2022 running when Listed status was removed from handicap races.[1]

The race was run over a distance of 2 miles and 5 furlongs before 1990.
