TORONTO, July 7, 2023 \u2013 Woodbine Entertainment today released its latest King\u2019s Plate Power Rankings for the 164th<\/sup> running of Canada\u2019s most prestigious horse race.<\/p>\n

The 164th<\/sup> King\u2019s Plate is the first leg of the OLG Canadian Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing and is scheduled for Sunday, August 20 at Woodbine Racetrack.<\/p>\n

The King\u2019s Plate Power Rankings provide a look at the current top contenders and is released several times ahead of this year\u2019s race. The voting committee for The King\u2019s Plate Power Rankings consists of Jeff Bratt (Woodbine Racing Host\/Analyst), Monique V\u00e1g (Woodbine Racing Host\/Analyst), Robert Geller (Woodbine Track Announcer), Ernie Perri (Woodbine Head Clocker\/Oddsmaker) and Ron Gierkink (Daily Racing Form).<\/p>\n

Each voter submits their own top-10 list and points are awarded to each horse based on their placement (10 points for first through one point for 10th<\/sup>).<\/p>\n

After taking top spot on the first rankings list, Stanley House has now been bumped down to number three, with Kalik and Mission of Joy moving to a tie for the top spot, each receiving the same number of points and first-place votes.<\/p>\n

Kalik is scheduled to run this Saturday in the Grade 1 Belmont Derby Invitational. The Chad Brown trainee is 5\/1 on the morning line for the $750,000 race, which is contested at a one and one-quarter mile on the turf.<\/p>\n

Competing in his toughest race to date on Saturday, Kalik is a perfect three for three this season, most recently posting a victory in the Grade 2 Pennine Ridge Stakes at Belmont.<\/p>\n

Mission of Joy will also be competing Saturday on Belmont\u2019s super stakes card. The top-ranked filly for this year\u2019s Plate is the 2\/1 morning line favourite for the Grade 1 Belmont Oaks Invitational, which will also be run at one and one-quarter mile on the turf.<\/p>\n

The Graham Motion trained Mission of Joy has multiple graded stakes victories to her name, posting wins in the Grade 3 Regret Stakes on June 3 at Churchill and the Grade 3 Florida Oaks in early-March at Tampa Bay.<\/p>\n

Stanley House lands third on the latest list for owners John and Diana Russell. The locally trained three-year-old has been idle since an impressive victory on June 18 at Woodbine.<\/p>\n
