This year’s edition of The Queen’s Plate is going to feature live performances from Universal Music Canada artists Jade Eagleson and platinum-selling singer/songwriter Ryland James, taking place right then and there at Woodbine Racetrack. September 12 is set to be a special day.
Following months of lockdown and a dynamically changing situation, people have been looking forward to live horse racing and the chance to experience it all in-person. Earlier this summer, Woodbine Entertainment announced it greenlights live racing without spectators, as this was the safest approach that could sustain the horse racing field of Ontario. Some riveting events are set to transform the upcoming weeks.
