Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the Y16 running of the Queen's Plate, the first leg of the Canadian Triple Crown!

We can now officially say that summer has begun with the end of the Triple Crowns and Tiaras. This season has been extremely competitive with different horses dominating on different days. Will we see a continuation of last year where a different horse took each separate leg or will we harken back to the days of the undeniable strength of Anodyne and stunning class of Italian Ice? We are about to find out!

The weather today is a overwhelming 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The hands and owners will need to be careful to not allow their horses to overheat.

fourth Tiger Heart

Tiger Heart: I really like this colt Isa, but the top three I felt were more consistent this time out. I hated putting him here and nobody deserved to be out of the money but this is just how I saw things playing out today. I think he'll bounce back from this placing fairly well once he gets rolling.

Firestorm: Another lovely colt that you've built up Rips, it was a toss up between Wyvern and him for 2nd/3rd but Wyvern just edged him out slightly today. I know its hard getting those wins with such a tough 3yo crop this season but I have confidence he'll get a win soon!

Wyvern: I felt like he had the back-class to nab 2nd place today after trying the preps for the TC. If you keep going with him I think he'll have a stellar end of his 3yo season into his 4yo season.

Natural Selection: Wow I love this horse! He's been extremely consistent this season on both surfaces and proved it today by getting this win. Keep going with him:)
