Run near the end of October, it is contested over a distance of 1 mile (8 furlongs) on turf and currently carries a purse of $96,563.

Inaugurated in 1975, it is named in honor of Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame inductee, Bunty Lawless (1935–1956) who, in a 1951 poll conducted by Canadian Press, was voted "Canadian Horse of the Half Century."
