Globe/CP say Magna founder's filly wins at Queens Plate

2017-07-04 08:19 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Monday, July 3, edition that Holy Helena and Luis Contreras delivered a first for Magna International founder Frank Stronach on Sunday. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that the Woodbine Oaks champion came from third to easily win the $1-million Queen's Plate at Woodbine Racetrack. The 3-1/2-length victory earned Stronach Stables its fourth win of the opening jewel of Canada's Triple Crown, but first with a filly. "Something like that [winning the Queen's Plate] doesn't get boring," Mr. Stronach said. "That's great, especially if you have a filly that wins the Plate." However, Mr. Stronach will not make a Triple Crown run with his prized filly. Mr. Stronach said it is very unlikely Holy Helena will race in the $500,000 Prince of Wales Stakes on July 25 at Fort Erie Racetrack. "I don't think so," he said. "Normally, I don't like to run fillies or any horse that quick after a big race, so she gets a little break now." Mr. Stronach does not anticipate changing his mind should Holy Helena come out of the Plate better than anticipated. "You don't want to go that often to the well," he said.
