The event was established in 1889, and during the early part of its history it was contested over 3,000 metres. It was run over 2,600 metres in 1971, and it reverted to its former length the following year. It was cut to its present distance in 1974. The race was formerly contested at Group 1 level before being downgraded from the 2016 running.
