It is run over a distance of 2 miles at Ascot Racecourse in January. It is one of the leading handicap chases of the season, and often includes contenders for the Queen Mother Champion Chase. There are twelve fences to be jumped in the race. It has been run as a Grade 2 race but in June 2007, the British Horseracing Board announced that the race would have Grade 1 status from 2008.
