The race is run during the course's Christmas Festival and is currently sponsored by Guinness. It was previously contested at Grade 2 level and was raised to Grade 1 status from the 2018 running.[1] Prior to 2020 it was run as the Greenmount Park Novice Chase before being renamed in honour of Faugheen, the 2019 winner of the race.[2]
