Sam-Son Farm’s 2-1 favorite Eye of the Leopard, ridden by jockey Eurico Rosa da Silva, won Sunday’s 150th edition of the $1-million Queen’s Plate at Woodbine June 21.
Eye of the Leopard managed to collar pacesetter Mr. Foricos Two U at the wire to win by a neck, in 2:03.84 over the Polytrack in the Queen’s Plate at 1 1/4 miles for Canadian-foaled 3-year-olds.
Filly Milwaukee Appeal, winner of the recent Woodbine Oaks, closed well between the top 2 to finish third, just a head behind Mr. Foricos Two U, in her bid to become the 34th filly to win the Queen’s Plate and the fifth to win both the Woodbine Oaks and the Queen’s Plate.
