Ryan Price won the first two runnings with Rosyth and trained four of the first five winners of the race.
After Rosyth's second win, following four unplaced efforts in between, his jockey was suspended for six weeks and his trainer warned off.

Two winners of the race – Persian War and Make a Stand – subsequently achieved victory in the following month's Champion Hurdle.
Persian War holds the weight carrying record for the race when winning as a 5 year old in 1968 with 11 stones 13 pounds on his back.
