The race was first run in 1995 as the Summer Festival Handicap Chase, it was awarded Listed status in 2005 and the distance was increased from 2m 3f to 2m 5½f. The race was upgraded to Grade 3 in 2020 and was re-classified as a Premier Handicap from the 2023 running when Grade 3 status was renamed by the British Horseracing Authority.[1]
