Inaugurated in 1962 as a race competed over one and one eighth miles, it was changed to its present one and a half mile distance in 1965. It has held various graded stakes race designations over the years, and currently has Grade II status.
Due to heavy rains, the 1975 race was shifted to the dirt track. It was run at a mile and a quarter on dirt in 1989 and again in 2009. In 1993, it was run at about a mile and a half on the turf course.
In 2013, Twilight Eclipse set a world record for 1 1⁄2 miles by winning the Pan American in a final time of 2:22.63. This time lowered the world record mark set just one week earlier at Santa Anita Park by Bright Thought in the San Luis Rey Handicap.
