What the Nation is saying about the Prince of Wales...

Today's 1 1/8-mile Ontario Derby asks handicappers to weigh the merits of two important factors: strong recent form or overall preference for a Polytrack surface. Read More

Last Sunday's Wonder Where Stakes was won by a filly that performed well in the first two jewels of the Triple Tiara, yet she returned more than $11. Could Breeders' yield same type of horse? Read More

  • Woodbine · I don't think there are a lot of questions with who will or won't handle turf. Most have been on and have handled it well in maiden or allowance wins. Obviously Pender Harbour has not. He's Kris s line on top and Northern Dancer on bottom. Even if he takes to turf, the distance or the regression may get better of him. Seawatch also a turf enigma. Woodman could go either way, no? · 298 days ago ·

While the Prince of Wales lost all its importance when the Queen’s Plate winning filly didn’t show her snout, one good thing did come out of the result. Pender Harbour’s victory allowed the chance to salute one of thoroughbred racing’s legends, almost 100 years later.Read More

  • Woodbinemile · Couldn't have agreed more. This is a BIG slap to all of us Canadian Horse racing fans. As well as the American, and Euro fans who watched the Queen's Plate, and take an interest in our TC. A track such as The Fort REALLY needed this boost, but unfortunately the connections thought otherwise. To bad, because the POW was a HELL of a race this past weekend, and surely she would have beaten Pender Harbour, and Bowman's Causeway. · 317 days ago ·

Let the Queen's Plate crew of Hippolytus, Check Your Soul, Pender Harbour, and Bowman's Causeway take all the bettor's money. I will be more than happy to take the horse who has a good race both over dirt, and the track, at odds of around 20-1.Read More

Draw day is today, at 2 p.m. the post positions will be drawn for Sunday’s PRINCE OF WALES STAKES, an event inaugurated in 1929 (although it has not been run every year). The field is a small one but the top 4 choices seem to have almost an equal chance of winning and the race tactics will be key.Read More

  • Woodbine · Lots of debate on Twitter concerning where Inglorious should run next - Prince of Wales against boys or Graded Stakes company at Saratoga, such as Alabama. It will be interesting to see. · 337 days ago ·

HANDICAPPING TODAY'S PRINCE OF WALES STAKES I have to go against the home team. No horse has yet to win the Prince Of Wales after winning the Plate on polytrack.

The connections of BIG RED MIKE (Tenpins) are hoping that his brush with royalty will translate into a sweep of the Canadian Triple Crown, but first the chestnut will have to take on seven rivals in the second leg of the series, the C$500,000 Prince of Wales S., at Fort Erie on Sunday. Read More
