Notes: 1888 was the inaugural year. The 1889 winner, W Copley (ENG) was later declared a professional and the race was voided. The race distance was 10 miles for 1888-1936; the 1888 race was point-to-point, from Tickhill to Rotherham while the subsequent races were out-and-back. From 1937 thru 1999, the race distance was 6 miles. This event is held as a handicap race; runners with the fastest times are listed when known and are indentified with an "f" following the time.
