Origin of the King’s Plate <\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”blue”]<\/p>\n

The King\u2019s Plate was inaugurated, with royal blessing, on Wednesday, June 27, 1860, at the Carleton track in Toronto, located in bucolic surroundings near what is now the traffic-strangled southwestern corner of Keele and Dundas streets.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”history-content”][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text]Sir Casimir Gzowski and Thomas Patteson were the two men who brought the race into close association with Buckingham Palace. Back on April 1, 1859, the Toronto Turf Club petitioned Queen Victoria to grant a Plate for a race in Ontario. The president of the club was Gzowski, a distinguished engineer whose father had been a Polish officer in the Russian Imperial Guard.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image source=”external_link” custom_src=”https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/06\/thomas_pattison_1881.jpg” caption=”Thomas Charles Patteson,
\nthe Englishman who created the Ontario Jockey Club” el_class=”history-image”][vc_column_text]There is no reason to believe that Queen Victoria was a wild-eyed devotee of horse racing. However, Her Majesty granted the petition of the little turf club in the boisterous Upper Canada community (the population of Toronto was 44,425) and offered as an annual prize, \u201ca plate to the value of Fifty Guineas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Canadian horse-racing had fallen on evil days in 1881, when Joseph Duggan, owner of the Woodbine race course, decided that the only person who could save the situation was Toronto\u2019s postmaster T. C. Patteson, a remarkable man who was recovering from the financial disaster of funding the old Toronto Mail. When he died, the Toronto World described him as \u201cthe man of the most distinct personality ever known to Toronto and probably to all Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n

Patteson was a paradox \u2013 a courtly Etonian and Oxonian who insisted upon transplanting the gracious living of upper class England to rowdy Toronto although for personal protection, he carried a pair of brass-knuckles in his jacket pockets. (Twice, he was knocked senseless by footpads in the Toronto streets.)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12″][vc_column_text]Patteson attacked the racing problem with his customary vigour. He called the formation meeting of The Ontario Jockey Club at the Queen\u2019s Hotel in June, 1881. Sir Casimir promptly subscribed $500 and attempted to leave the chair, saying, \u201cThere, that\u2019s all I expect that you want of me.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Patteson had other plans which he confided to Sir Casimir. They agreed that horse racing would be established for all time as a Canadian institution \u2013 not alone as a sport \u2013 if a member of the Royal Family could be persuaded to attend the races at Woodbine. In his personal writings, Patteson envisioned the day \u201cwhen the Queen herself would be present for the running of The Queen\u2019s Plate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The plot was hatched guilefully. The incumbent Governor-General of Canada was the Marquis of Lorne. The Marchioness of Lorne was Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria. In his capacity as aide-de-camp to the Queen, Sir Casimir invited the Lornes to be his house guests in Toronto. Remarkably, their visit coincided with the spring racing meeting at Woodbine. Remarkably, too, they agreed to accompany their host to the races.<\/p>\n

It was perhaps, typical of Patteson that, writing of the event under a pen-name in The Mail, he remarked testily that \u201cit was unfortunate that Her Royal Highness delayed the start of the racing by being 15 minutes late.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sir Casimir and Mr. Patteson had turned the trick. Canadian racing was established as \u201cthe sport of royalty\u201d.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image source=”external_link” custom_src=”https:\/\/woodbine.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/06\/visting_reps_1965.jpg” caption=”Two weeks after the Plate race\u2028Sir Casmir Gzowski announced the winner” el_class=”history-image”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Royal Visits” tab_id=”royal-visit-tab”][vc_row_inner el_class=”history-tab-content”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”history-title”]<\/p>\n

Which Plate?<\/span> Queen’s or King’s <\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”white”]In a symbolic nod to the reigning Canadian monarch, the race proudly bears the name King’s Plate, a tradition that harks back to Queen Victoria’s gracious donation of the inaugural cup.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1860, the Queen’s Plate galloped into history, inaugurating its first race amidst great anticipation and excitement, thus laying the groundwork for a legacy of equestrian excellence. In 1902, the race underwent a brief metamorphosis, donning the title King’s Plate in homage to the new monarch, Edward VII, following the somber passing of Queen Victoria.<\/p>\n

Yet, like a steed returning to its familiar path, it gracefully resumed its original identity during the illustrious reign of Elizabeth II (1952\u20132022). Then, in the heralded year of 2022, with the dawn of Charles III’s reign, the race once again embraced a new era, reclaiming its historical moniker, the King’s Plate, with a renewed sense of vigor and purpose.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Oddities” tab_id=”1716914040058-8fe5f26f-1df8″][vc_column_text el_class=”history-title lighter-title width-auto”]<\/p>\n

King’s plate<\/span> Oddities<\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”white”]There are ironic notes here and there in connection with The King\u2019s Plate, the annual Gallop for the Guineas. For example, The King\u2019s Plate is not a Plate and the King\u2019s guineas are not guineas. Outside of that, The King\u2019s Plate is indeed the \u201cGallop for the Guineas.\u201d<\/p>\n

The guineas? Minting of guineas was discontinued in England during the reign of George III whose forbear, George I, had instituted the gift of fifty guineas in racing, a tradition that remains though the guineas do not.<\/p>\n

About it not being a Plate; King Charles II began awarding silver plates as racing prizes in the seventeenth century at Newmarket, the size of the plate indicating the value of the race. But the practice became outmoded, perhaps as variety was sought in the prize. Other pieces of silver were instituted as awards and then other metals were used. Nowadays, The King\u2019s Plate is actually a gold cup, about a foot high.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Third section” tab_id=”1716914040133-3f3ffb79-d4f1″][vc_column_text el_class=”history-title lighter-title width-auto”]<\/p>\n

Canada’s Oldest <\/span> Thoroughbred Racing<\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”white”]The\u00a0King’s Plate<\/b>\u00a0(known as the\u00a0Queen’s Plate<\/b>\u00a0from 1860 to 1901 and 1952 to 2022) is Canada’s oldest\u00a0thoroughbred horse race and the oldest continuously run race in North America,\u00a0<\/sup>having been founded in 1860. It is run at a distance of\u00a01+<\/span>1<\/span>\u20444<\/span><\/span> miles (2 km) for a maximum of 17 three-year-old thoroughbred horses foaled in Canada.<\/p>\n

The race’s name reflects the title of the reigning\u00a0Canadian monarch, following on\u00a0Queen Victoria’s donation of the first cup.<\/p>\n

As King of Canada, Charles III is patron of the event. Various other members of the Canadian royal family have attended, beginning with John Campbell, Marquess of Lorne, and his wife, Princess Louise, in 1881, when Lorne was serving as governor general of Canada and the couple was touring Ontario.[21] Queen Elizabeth II’s fourth and final visit to the race was in early July 2010.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_pageable][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content” css=”.vc_custom_1714662354609{border-bottom-width: 3rem !important;padding-top: 3rem !important;}” el_class=”bg-beige-wave bg-gold-corner”][vc_column][vc_column_text][vc_row css=\".vc_custom_1715981780140{margin-bottom: 50px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/woodbine_dev.whitecapcanada.com\/kingsplate\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/04\/join-newsletter-bg.png?id=5657) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}\"][vc_column css_animation=\"none\"][vc_column_text el_class=\"blue\"]\r\n
