One Bad Boy draws rail in Prince of Wales

The way they finished in the $1 million Queen’s Plate is the order in which they drew for Tuesday’s $400,000 Prince of Wales Stakes, the middle leg of the Canadian Triple Crown at Fort Erie.

One Bad Boy, the 3 1/2-length winner of the 10-furlong Queen’s Plate, drew post 1 and was tabbed as the 7-5 favorite in the five-horse Prince of Wales field. Flavien Prat retains the mount on the Richard Baltas-trained ridgling.

Avie’s Flatter, Canada’s reigning champion 2-year-old male, got post 2 under Javier Castellano, who was aboard for his pace-pressing second in the Queen’s Plate. Josie Carroll trains the Grade 3 stakes winner, who breezed five-eighths in a quick 1:00.20 on July 11 at Fort Erie.

Tone Broke, based at Churchill Downs with trainer Steve Asmussen, is the 5-1 fourth choice from post 3. He ran evenly to finish 6 3/4 lengths back in third in the Queen’s Plate. Ricardo Santana Jr., who was up for his second to King for a Day in the Sir Barton Stakes at Pimlico, has the call.

Carroll’s other entrant, He’s a Macho Man, is the 8-1 outsider from post 4 under Patrick Husbands. He made up some ground to finish 9 1/4 lengths back in fourth in the slow-paced Queen’s Plate, which was run on the synthetic Tapeta surface.

Skywire begins from the outside under Eurico Da Silva. The 3-1 proposition was never in contention in the Queen’s Plate after getting wiped out at the break by Tone Broke. Skywire wound up 11th as the favorite. He will try to give trainer Mark Casse his fifth win in the historic Prince of Wales.

The Prince of Wales will be run over 1 3/16 miles on the dirt. It will be televised on TSN in Canada from 7-8 p.m. Eastern.
