The race was first run, as the Chobham Conditions Stakes, in 1995. It was given its current name and awarded Listed status in 2004.[1]
Since 2019 the official title has indicated that the race should be considered as a trial for the Queen Anne Stakes, run at the Royal Meeting over the same course and distance in June.
The race title was originally used for a different race, now called the Sagaro Stakes, which is run at the same Ascot meeting.
