History

The event was established in 1965, and it was originally called the Adolf Schindling-Rennen. It was named in memory of Adolf Schindling (1887–1963), a Frankfurt-born businessman who owned the successful stud farm Gestüt Asta.

The race was given Group 3 status in 1982. For a period it was sponsored by Steigenberger Hotels and run as the Preis der Steigenberger Hotels. It was later backed by BMW and titled the BMW Händler-Trophy.

The banking company Bankhaus Metzler took over the sponsorship in 2000. Since 2016 it was moved to Baden-Baden to be run at its spring festival and renamed the Ittlingen Derby Trial.

gollark: Idea: hack dictionaries somehow to add wordson demand for raps... um, curds?
gollark: English is loosely definedThis doesn't really rhymed.
gollark: In that case, we need a Rap Bot Battle.
gollark: Maybe machine-learning algorithms™would be able to procedurally generate raps more effectively... something something logarithm.
gollark: Wrimes sounds like rhymesand also like Vimes
