s on dirt. The race received Grade III status by the American Graded Stakes Committee for 2009, but the race wasn't run. The MassCap was stripped of its graded status in 2011 as a result of not being run for two consecutive years.

Suffolk Downs continues to fight for its economic life since closing for a three-year period beginning in 1989. The MassCap has been a frequent casualty of those circumstances. It was first held on October 16, 1935.

In an attempt to bring the MassCap back to its former glory, new ownership offered a purse of $500,000 in 2007. Suffolk Downs also provided a bonus of $200,000 if the winner won multiple Grade I or Group 1 stakes races at a mile or longer. An additional $100,000 was to be awarded if the winner had won one Grade I or Group 1 race and at least one other graded stakes race at a mile or longer in 2007.
