TORONTO, June 29 - Fares Farm’s Embur’s Song, who suffered her first defeat as the odds-on choice in the Woodbine Oaks, presented by Budweiser, on June 13, will now point for the Bison City Stakes here at Woodbine on July 11, rather than this Sunday’s Queen’s Plate.
The $250,000 Bison City, second leg of the Triple Tiara for Canadian-foaled three-year-old fillies, is at one and one-sixteenth miles over Woodbine’s Polytrack.
In the mile and one-eighth Oaks, the Todd Pletcher-trained Embur’s Song, who was making just her third career start, went immediately to the front and led most of the way until caught inside the sixteenth pole by Roan Inish and Moment of Majesty.
Roan Inish is headed towards Sunday’s Queen’s Plate, while Moment of Majesty may also contest the ‘Gallop for the Guineas.'
