It is run at Limerick Racecourse in late December over a distance of about 2 miles and 3½ furlongs (2 miles 3 furlongs and 160 yards, or 3,968 metres).

The race is run during the course's Christmas Festival and is currently sponsored by Guinness. It was previously contested at Grade 2 level and was raised to Grade 1 status from the 2018 running. Prior to 2020 it was run as the Greenmount Park Novice Chase before being renamed in honour of Faugheen, the 2019 winner of the race.
