[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]TORONTO, September 28, 2020 \u2013 Queen\u2019s Plate winner Mighty Heart will continue his pursuit of the prestigious OLG Canadian Triple Crown\u00a0when he takes on eight contenders at Fort Erie Race Track in the 85th Prince of Wales Stakes, on Tuesday, September 29.<\/p>\n

After a dominating 7 \u00bd-length triumph in the Queen\u2019s Plate, Mighty Heart, bred and owned by Lawrence Cordes, and trained by Canadian Hall of Fame inductee Josie Carroll, will look to continue his winning ways in the $400,000 Prince of Wales, second jewel in the OLG Canadian Triple Crown. On Friday, he was installed as the 7-5 morning line favourite.<\/p>\n

Daisuke Fukumoto, who rode the one-eyed Ontario-bred to his stirring Plate score, is back in the irons for Tuesday\u2019s engagement for Canadian-bred three-year-olds, set for 1 3\/16 miles on the Fort Erie dirt surface. Carroll, who won the 2006 Plate with Edenwold and the 2011 edition with the filly Inglorious, won the 2016 running of the Prince of Wales with Amis Gizmo.<\/p>\n

Mighty Heart, who will leave from post two, faces Plate rivals Clayton (third in the Plate), Dotted Line (seventh), Tecumseh\u2019s War (fourth), and Truebelieve (ninth), as well as Bold Victory, Enchant Me, Muskoka Giant, and Red Victory.<\/p>\n

Some of the sport\u2019s top experts have delivered their picks (see below<\/em><\/strong>) that comprise the Prince of Wales Power Rankings\u00a0presented by the OLG Canadian Triple Crown. The\u00a0Power\u00a0Rankings\u00a0spotlight top contenders as voted on by expert horseplayers and racing commentators from Woodbine Racetrack and Fort Erie Race Track, including\u00a0Jeff Bratt<\/a>,\u00a0Robert Geller<\/a>,\u00a0Ashley Mailloux<\/a>,\u00a0Doug McPherson<\/a>,\u00a0Jason Portuondo<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Monique Vag<\/a>. The\u00a0rankings\u00a0are based on votes following a 5-4-3-2-1 points system for the top five selections.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”20231″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Should Mighty Heart, whose Plate time of 2:01.98 was the second fastest Plate run since 1957, emerge victorious in the Prince of Wales, it could set up a possible date in the starting gate for the $400,000 Breeders\u2019 Stakes, third and final jewel in the Triple Crown Series, set for 1 \u00bd miles on the world renowned E.P. Taylor Turf Course, October 24 at Woodbine.<\/p>\n

The last horse to sweep all three races was Wando in 2003. Bred and owned by the late Gus Schickedanz, and trained by Mike Keogh, the son of Langfuhr garnered front-page coverage in the lead-up and aftermath of his Triple Crown quest.<\/p>\n

First race post time on September 29 is 2:10 p.m., with the\u00a0Prince\u00a0of\u00a0Wales\u00a0scheduled for approximately 5:37 p.m. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, Fort Erie Race Track will be closed to spectators.
