The event is named after Greenlands, the area of the Curragh plain where the racecourse is located.{{cite web | title = The Curragh Land Area | publisher = kildare.ie | url = http://www.kildare.ie/defenceforces/land.htm | date = 2003 | accessdate = 23 May 2009}} It is held on the same afternoon as the Irish 2,000 Guineas. Prior to 2015 it was also open to three-year-olds and was contested at Group 3 level.
