(OLG). OLG will return as the title sponsor of the race series for Canadian-sired 3-year-olds, comprised of the June 29 Queen’s Plate at Woodbine, July 23 Prince of Wales S. at Fort Erie and the Aug. 17 Breeders’ S. back at Woodbine. “Woodbine Entertainment is thrilled to continue our partnership with OLG as we work towards raising the prominence of Canada’s Triple Crown,” said Jonathan Zammit, VP of Thoroughbred Racing Operations. “The prospect of a Triple Crown champion generates buzz around the sport and bringing back the incentive of a lucrative bonus will help to fuel that excitement.” The post Bonus to be Offered for Canadian Triple Crown Sweep appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
