History
The event was originally held at Frankfurt, and it used to be called the Frankfurter Stutenpreis. It was established in 1999, and was initially contested over 2,150 metres. It was given Listed status in 2000, and promoted to Group 3 level in 2004.
The race was switched to Düsseldorf and extended to 2,200 metres in 2008. It returned to Frankfurt with its previous length in 2009.
The distance of the race was restored to 2,200 metres in 2010. That year's edition was staged at Düsseldorf, and subsequent runnings were held at Cologne (2011) and Hanover (2012).
The Herbst Stutenpreis has been run under various titles since leaving Frankfurt. It was known as the Grosser Preis Jungheinrich-Gabelstapler in 2012.
