First run at Saratoga in 1922, The TEST has developed into a principal race for three-year-old fillies pointing towards the Grade 1 Alabama, also at Saratoga. When Emotion took the inaugural running, the event was run at a mile and a quarter, a distance reduced to the present seven furlongs the following year.

The TEST has been won by some top fillies throughout the years; including, Bazaar, Gamely, Desert Vixen, Vagrancy, Numbered Account, Black Wave, Ta Wee, and many others.

The TEST was run at Belmont Park in 1943, 1944, and 1945. Not run from 1923 to 1925, nor in 1961. Run at the distance of a mile and a quarter in 1922. Run in two divisions in 1960, 1962, 1963, 1965, 1966, 1967, 1970, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1977, 1978, and 1979.
