History

The event is named after Oleander, a successful German racehorse in the 1920s. It was established in 1972, and the first two runnings were won by Sarto. For a period it held Listed status.

The Oleander-Rennen was promoted to Group 3 level in 1989. It was sponsored by the fashion company Betty Barclay from 1998 to 2009, and during this time it was known as the Betty Barclay-Rennen.
