The Grade III event is for fillies and Mares four-year-olds and older, and is set at a distance of seven furlongs. Since 1997, the Bed O' Roses has offered a purse of $150,000 added.^[1]

It was run in two divisions in 1964 and 1979 and its distance for its first three years was a mile and a sixteenth and then again in 1977 and 1978.
