History

The event was originally held at Ascot.[1] The present grading system was introduced in 1971, and the race was classed at Group 3 level. It was staged at Newmarket in 1978,[2] and transferred to Salisbury in 1979.[3] It was discontinued after 1986.

The race served as a trial for the 2000 Guineas Stakes. The last horse to win both events was Sir Ivor in 1968.

The equivalent race for fillies was the 1,000 Guineas Trial Stakes.
