LUCAS N\u2019 LORI LOOKS TO SPRING QUEEN\u2019S PLATE UPSET<\/strong><\/p>\n

TORONTO, June 22, 2019 \u2013 Seventeen years ago, T J\u2019s Lucky Moon pulled off an 82-1 Queen\u2019s Plate shocker. Can Lucas n\u2019 Lori deliver another longshot score in next Saturday\u2019s $1 million Canadian classic?<\/p>\n

It was 2002 when Molinaro Stables\u2019 T J Lucky Moon, under Steve Bahen, lit up the toteboard in the 143rd running of the Plate. In just over a week, a one-time winner will endeavour to duplicate those very same underdog exploits.<\/p>\n

Owned by Lori Cirillo and Kelly Waxman, Lucas n\u2019 Lori will make his stakes debut in the 1 1\/4-mile \u2018Gallop for the Guineas.\u2019<\/p>\n

The enormity of the task isn\u2019t lost on Kevin Attard. But the finalist for the 2018 Sovereign Award as Canada\u2019s outstanding trainer isn\u2019t about to concede defeat before the gates open on the 160th edition of the Plate.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn Plate day, there are so many elements that go into the race, other than the race itself,\u201d said Attard. \u201cYou have to be able to handle the crowd, you have to be able to handle the weather, the long post parade \u2013 those are some of the factors that can weigh in on that day for the horse. Hopefully, he\u2019s a horse that can take that all in. You always need a little racing luck on your side, so hopefully he has it on that day.\u201d<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in a name? Co-owner, 15-year-old Lori Cirillo, has the answer.<\/p>\n

\u201cKelly (co-owner, Waxman) has a son named Lucas,\u201d Cirillo said of the wife of prominent Standardbred breeder\/owner Aaron Waxman. \u201cAnd I\u2019m obviously Lori. We wanted to name it after the two kids. If we ever get the chance to own a filly, we\u2019re going to name it Lori n\u2019 Lucas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bred by Silver Springs Stud LLC and Garry Parr, Lucas n\u2019 Lori launched his career on September 1, 2018. He finished second in his debut, one length back of the winner. After a fourth and another runner-up effort, the chestnut broke his maiden via a 2 1\/4-length triumph at 1 1\/16 miles over the Woodbine main track on November 30.<\/p>\n

Lucas n\u2019 Lori comes into the Plate with one win and a pair of seconds from six lifetime starts.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s going to be a longshot,\u201d noted Attard. \u201cBut I don\u2019t think the distance will be a problem, so that\u2019s a big positive. He\u2019s been a handy horse to have. This is going to be asking a lot of him, but on any given day, any horse can step up under the right circumstances.\u201d<\/p>\n

Attard is hoping that moment comes on a stakes-filled Saturday card on June 29.<\/p>\n

\u201cMentally, he\u2019s starting to come around. It\u2019s a big jump up, but it\u2019s a mile-and-a-quarter, and there are a lot of horses that don\u2019t want to go that far. Hopefully, he\u2019s one that does. I suppose you can view it as, \u2018Go big or go home.\u2019 When you have a three-year-old Canadian-bred, a lot of people are dreaming and hoping. That\u2019s why they get into this great sport. My job is to prepare this horse the best I can and hopefully he\u2019s good enough.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Cirillo, it\u2019s a dream come true.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve gone to the Queen\u2019s Plate for years and I just love watching it,\u201d said the daughter of long-time horse owner Frank Cirillo. \u201cTo know that I\u2019m going to have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity at this young age is just incredible. I\u2019m so happy about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very excited to have a horse in the Queen\u2019s Plate, and from what I know, we should be a longshot, so we will be able to enjoy the day with very little pressure and take in the great event,\u201d said Waxman. \u201cHopefully we can surprise some people, including ourselves!<\/p>\n

\u201cThe horse is named after my first-born son (and Frank Cirillo\u2019s daughter Lori) who is two now and he\u2019s very fast and surprises me a lot, so hopefully Lucas n\u2019 Lori shares those traits on Plate day! We seem to have lots of luck when we are the underdog and some disappointments when we are favourite so I\u2019m content with our role coming into the race.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kazushi Kimura, the 2018 Sovereign Award recipient as Canada\u2019s top apprentice, gets the call for the Plate.<\/p>\n

The native of Japan finished last season – his first Woodbine campaign – sixth in the jockey standings with 89 wins and more than $2.3 million in purse earnings.<\/p>\n

FEATURE: CAN ONE OF DE PAULO\u2019S MAIDEN RUNNERS SECURE THE PLATE?<\/strong><\/p>\n

By: Hayley Morrison for Woodbine Communications<\/p>\n

Woodbine-based trainer Mike De Paulo has two chances to clinch this year\u2019s $1-million Queen\u2019s Plate, but there is one catch.<\/p>\n

Both of his contenders, Rising Star and Moon Swings, have yet to win a race.<\/p>\n

Despite that fact, De Paulo has faith in both his runners. Especially given their respective performances on June 8 in the Plate Trial, the final prep race for the Queen\u2019s Plate.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey both ran together last time and they were fairly close at the end. They finished third and fourth. I don\u2019t know if you are a Ragozin believer or not, but Moon Swings ran an 11 Ragozin and the lower the number the better, running fourth. And Rising Star ran a 12 Ragozin. Ragozin (number) takes into account where you are on the track, how much weight you carry and all that. So number-wise, Moon Swings actually ran faster. Rising Star got bumped a little down the backstretch, bounced off the rail a little and it probably cost us a position for sure and he seemed to be gaining on the winner.\u201d<\/p>\n

Can a horse that\u2019s never won a race finally do it in a historic race like the Queen\u2019s Plate?<\/p>\n

If the history books could speak, they would say yes. Not a yes solely based on merit, but more so on the restrictions and format of the early editions of the race.<\/p>\n

As a matter of fact, Louis Cauz points out in his book, The Plate: A Royal Tradition, <\/em>that when the Queen\u2019s Plate was created, \u201camong the more practical encouragements given to horsemen with the royal gift of fifty guineas from Queen Victoria was the fact that the Plate would be contested by horses bred in Ontario which had never won a race, a condition that gave the sporting farmer an equal chance with wealthy stud owners.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 1868, eight years after the Plate\u2019s inception, Cauz also notes that \u201chorses were ineligible which had won a stakes on the flat at a public race meeting where money was awarded.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some racing forms even make mention of it being a maiden-based race at one point.<\/p>\n

For example, in 1889 the racing form specifically stipulated within the Queen\u2019s Plate racing conditions: For all aged maidens, owned, bred and raised and trained in the Province of Ontario<\/em> (Cauz, p. 75).<\/p>\n

In 1887, Bonnie Duke became the first maiden to win the Queen\u2019s Plate going the current distance of a mile-and-a-quarter. Originally, when the Plate was first conceived it was run as a set of one-mile heats (between 1860 to 1867) with the best finisher of those several heats pocketing 50 guineas. After 1867, the distance changed to a dash of two miles (1868-1870), then a mile and three-quarters (1871), before changing to a mile and a half for the next 15 years.<\/p>\n

A few other fun facts to be duly noted are that two unraced fillies, named Kitestring and Butter Scotch, managed to fly home with the guineas in 1890 and in 1899, respectively.<\/p>\n

Obviously, when it comes to a race like the Queen\u2019s Plate, one that spans neatly over a century, there\u2019s a lot of ground to cover. Some of the basic facts go as follows:<\/p>\n

The purse money has significantly increased over the years.<\/p>\n

From 1939 onwards, only Canadian-bred three-year-olds have been eligible to compete for the Plate.<\/p>\n

In 1957, a 1-1\/4 mile became the official distance for the race.<\/p>\n

In several editions throughout the years, the Plate was also known as the King\u2019s Plate (between 1902-1909 and then from 1911-1951) \u2013 but that\u2019s another story to save for a rainy day read.<\/p>\n

Whether the Plate was run at different locations or at various distances, history shows that the prestigious race was once only open to horses that had never won public prize money or won a race prior to competing in the Plate. Therefore, it would appear that back in the day maidens were given more than equal opportunity to secure the big race.<\/p>\n

The only maiden to be snubbed of that chance was Fred Henry, who according to Cauz, ran in the Plate a whopping five times between 1884 and 1889. He was a runner-up in the 1885, 1886 and 1887 instalment of the race.<\/p>\n

On Woodbine\u2019s backstretch, asking people to recall maidens that have won the Plate, two names popped up: Willie the Kid, the 1940 Plate winner, and Golden Choice, the 1986 Plate winner.<\/p>\n

However, the most prominent name that came to mind was Scatter the Gold. The Sam-Son owned and bred horse was the last (or most recent) maiden to win the race back in the 2000 edition of the Plate.<\/p>\n

Although it\u2019s been nearly two decades since a maiden has reigned triumphant in the race, De Paulo has noted something special about his trainee Rising Star. The son of Ghostzapper (out of Purple Trillium) was purchased earlier this year for owner Robert Marzilli.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had this horse\u2019s half-brother, Seeking Albert, who was a real stayer. And we are thinking this horse is maybe a little like that. I\u2019m actually really looking forward to getting him on the grass at some point too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seeking Albert did not run in the Queen\u2019s Plate, but ended up running fourth in the 2017 Breeders\u2019 Stakes, the third leg of the Canadian Triple Crown. Unlike the Queen\u2019s Plate, which covers about 10 furlongs (1-1\/4 mile) over the main Tapeta track, the Breeders\u2019 Stakes asks horse and rider to go 12 furlongs (or 1-1\/2 miles) over the turf course.<\/p>\n

De Paulo\u2019s confidence in Rising Star may also stem from the fact that his sire, Ghostzapper, has produced both the 2015 Queen\u2019s Plate winner Shaman Ghost as well as the 2017 winner Holy Helena.<\/p>\n

Aside from his substantial family lineage, Rising Star\u2019s strong closing third in the 1-1\/8-mile Plate Trial has also provided some encouragement for De Paulo.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt appears that Rising Star is sort of a galloper, like he just kind of keeps coming. I suppose I\u2019m more confident of him getting the 1-1\/4-mile than the other horse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jockey Justin Stein, who returned to race riding earlier this season and rode Rising Star in the Trial, will again have the leg up on the colt for the 160th edition of the Queen\u2019s Plate.<\/p>\n

De Paulo has assigned jockey Jesse Campbell to pilot the other horse known as Moon Swings.<\/p>\n

The cheeky chestnut gelding owned by Marzilli has mounted a pretty successful racing campaign thus far; posting several third-place finishes to Queen\u2019s Plate winterbook favourite and Ivan Dalos\u2019 homebred Avie\u2019s Flatter.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnytime you see a picture of Ivan Dalos\u2019 horse, you see Moon Swings in the background. He was third to him in the Coronation Futurity and the Cup and Saucer Stakes. He\u2019s always showed a bit of ability. We recently gelded him for his last start. Jesse (Campbell) always thought there was a little more and he just hadn\u2019t given it to us. We are hoping that with a little more time passing that that\u2019s going to set him on sort of a more positive attitude.\u201d<\/p>\n

De Paulo does admit that Moon Swings has been kind of tricky to train and then watch run in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m also hoping (Moon Swings) just wakes up one day and puts it all together and gives the effort that the jock seem to say he has. People breeze him in the morning and say, \u2018wow.\u2019 For whatever reason, he is not showing as much in the afternoons and he does in the mornings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Campbell echoes similar sentiments, remaining puzzled about the gelding\u2019s somewhat lacklustre performance come race day.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the morning he shows me gears. He\u2019ll get down and really fire home and I have yet to see that in a race. There\u2019s been a handful of times in a race, I feel like he is going to give it to me, but he just doesn\u2019t for whatever reason, I don\u2019t know. It\u2019s kind of one of those things, you wish they could talk.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, the seasoned jock does believe that gelding the chestnut son of Malibu Moon might make a difference.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if we\u2019ve necessarily seen the full effects of gelding him quite yet. So I\u2019m hopeful that with a little bit more time that will help in the race. I\u2019m not concerned about the distance. Honestly to date, you could say maybe the talent is not quite there. But I\u2019ve really expected this horse to be further along in his career than what he is. I truly believe he is better than what he\u2019s shown.\u201d<\/p>\n

Greatly anticipating whether the chestnut gelding will swing into action or the bay colt will rise to the top, their owner, Marzilli, is still more than pleased with both trainees so far.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they are both talented horses. Moon Swings has never won a race yet, but he\u2019s been in some of the top races last year for the two-year-olds and always sort of made it in the money. Rising Star in the Plate Trial run\u2026he came strong at the end, so I think going a 1-1\/4-mile he might have a good chance of hitting the board,\u201d said Marzilli, whose been in the racing game for the last five years or so.<\/p>\n

Partnering with De Paulo over that period of time, Marzilli has visited the winner\u2019s circle on various occasions with champs such as Caren and most recently multiple Grade 3 stakes winner Code Warrior.<\/p>\n

To date, the Queen\u2019s Plate is still one race that has eluded his grasp.<\/p>\n

What would it mean to Marzilli to capture the oldest continuously run stakes race in North America?<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean it would be outstanding, obviously. I actually promised one of my friends, he\u2019s an older gentleman, and I said before he croaks hopefully we will win the Plate. I\u2019ve got to basically own up to what I say, so I\u2019m hoping one day we\u2019ll win it.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s ambitious and maybe even a \u2018swashbuckling\u2019 endeavour for a maiden to win the Plate these days, but according to the history books, it has happened.<\/p>\n
