During World War II the race was run at Flemington Racecourse.[3]

The 2016 edition of the race attracted only three entries, the smallest ever G1 race in Australia with champion mare Winx scaring off potential rivals.[4] In 2021 the race was renamed The Might and Power to honour the 1997 Caulfield Cup and Melbourne Cup winner who won this race back in 1998.[5]
