History

The race was first held in 1955. At first it was named Aki-no-Kura (秋の鞍), meaning 'The Race of Autumn race meeting', and raced over a distance of 2,600 meters.

In 1966, its name was changed to Tokyo Daishōten.

Since 2011, It has been held as an international Grade 1 race (The only international race in Japan not organized by the Japan Racing Association).

The race provides an alternative to the February Stakes and to the Dubai World Cup Night's meetings for Japanese horses.

Its distance has been changed three times. From 1962 to 1988, it was 3,000 meters long, from 1989 to 1997, 2,800 meters and after 1998, 2,000 meters.

Gold Allure, Vermilion, Kane Hekili, Hokko Tarumae, Copano Rickey all won the race on the way to winning the JRA Award for Best Dirt Horse.
