History

edit

The event is named in memory of Per-Erik Pramm, a successful owner-breeder in Sweden.[1] It was established in 1984, and the first running was won by Avrio.

For a period the Pramms Memorial held Listed status. It was promoted to Group 3 level in 2012.[2] and relegated back to Listed level in 2016.

Unusually for a Group or Listed race in Europe, the Pramms Memorial is run on a dirt track.
