The third leg of the Canadian Triple Crown, the $500,000 Breeders’ Stakes, takes place this Sunday at Woodbine. While there’s no Triple Crown on the line this year, the third Jewel will feature a rematch between Queen’s Plate winner Strait of Dover and the Prince of Wales Stakes-winning filly, Dixie Strike. The pair clashed previously in the Queen’s Plate, in which Strait of Dover rolled to a front-running 1 1/4-length victory over Irish Mission, with Dixie Strike a troubled third, five lengths behind the winner.
A full field is expected for Canada’s "Test of the Champion," to be contested over 1 1/2 miles on the sweeping E. P. Taylor turf course. TwinSpires.com Players can get in on the action by playing in our 1-Million Points Breeders’ Stakes Showdown.
