The race was first run in 1991, and it was originally titled the Hong Kong International Bowl. Its distance was initially set at 1,400 metres. The event's present title and distance were both introduced in 1999, and the following year it was promoted to Group 1 status.
Гонконгская миля - одна из четырех гонконгских международных гонок , и в настоящее время она предлагает кошелек в размере 23 000 000 гонконгских долларов (приблизительно 2,9 миллиона долларов США).
