History

The event was originally called the Grosser Sprint-Preis, and it used to be staged at Munich. It was established in 1985, and it was initially contested over 1,300 metres. For a period it held Listed status.

The Grosser Sprint-Preis was promoted to Group 3 level in 1998. It was transferred to Baden-Baden and renamed the Badener Sprint-Cup in 2004. From this point its distance was 1,400 metres.

The race was last run in 2009. It was replaced the following year by the Badener Ladies Sprint Cup, a Listed event for fillies and mares.
