History
The race is considered the main lead up to the Perth Cup held on New Year's Day.[1]
The distance of the race was reduced by 300 metres (2008) to coincide with the shortening of the Perth Cup from 3200 metres to 2400 metres in 2009.[1]
In 2003 the race was run at Belmont Park Racecourse.
In 2016 the race was re-named to the Ted Van Heemst Stakes in honor of Western Australian Racing Hall of Famer Ted van Heemst.[2]
