The race was first run in 1978 and was won by Kapalaran. It is named after legendary horse Gloaming who famously won 19 races in a row. No horse has ever won the race in consecutive years, however, some great runners have claimed victory, including Kingston Town, Tie The Knot, So You Think and It’s A Dundeel.

Shadow Hero clocked 1:49.10 to win the Gloaming Stakes in 2019, which was an impressive time but not the fastest from the last 20 years. That honour belongs to Retrieve, who in 2010 ran 1:48.28. The 1800m Rosehill track record belongs to Intergaze who managed a 1:47.99 in 1997.
