The event is held on the same afternoon as Sandown Park's most prestigious flat race, the Eclipse Stakes.
The race was run for the first time in 1986 as the Trafalgar House Sprint Stakes, at Listed level, and it was promoted to Group 3 status in 2004.
The long-term sponsors of the Eclipse Stakes, Coral, have sponsored the Sprint Stakes in 2009. It is now known as the Coral Charge.
