As many of you are aware, I am a huge fan of Horse Racing and in having been a huge advocate for the sport the past 10 years, I've been incredibly lucky to have two horses named after me. A PIC BY MRWILL gave us such a thrill, taking us into the Winner's Circle in her final race back in 2017 and now MR WILL embarks on his career with his debut tonight at Woodbine Racetrack.
MR WILL's journey to the races has been met with challenges but he's shown Owner/Trainer Michelle Love that he's got ...

#HORSERACING: PRINCE X PRINCESS DIARIES – JUNE 2020
And in the blink of an eye the 2020 season has begun at Woodbine Racetrack! We heard the cries of frustration of the racing community and we couldn't be happier for them. While we won't be permitted to watch races in-person for a bit, watching them on TV from home gives us a bit of comfort seeing familiar faces once again, even if from afar. The purses are bigger than ever, the daily handles are gastronomical. Some new stars are emerging and some are back with a ...

#HORSERACING: PRINCESS x PRINCE DIAIRES – APRIL 2020
2020 has been awful challenging. Believe me, our hearts are with the Horse Racing community right now with racing cancelled or postponed both sides of the border, with a select few racetracks continuing operations with access restricted to the public. With the 2020 season postponed indefinitely at Woodbine Racetrack, we are glad that safety of the community is being placed first on the backstretch. At the same time, we worry for our friends whose livelihoods depended on that initial April 18, ...

#SUNDANCE: “DREAM HORSE”
Review by Amanda Gilmore for Mr. Will Wong
In the attempt to find meaning in her life, Jan (Toni Collette), breeds a racehorse in her tiny Welsh town and enters him in once race after another.
This is a hilarious and heart-warming underdog story filled with quintessential British humour. Although the story is quite conventional it’s the way Horse Racing is presented and the brilliant performance from Collette that separates it from the rest. Overall, Director Euros Lyn brings Jan’s true ...

#HORSERACING: PRINCE x PRINCESS DIARIES – DECEMBER 2019
Happy Holidays, from our dear Prince (Mr Will) and Princess (A Pic by Mrwill)! We hope that yours are filled with joy and happiness - from our gorgeous equine family to yours!
So happy to see Princess coming around so well and become who she was meant to become. She's calmed-down significantly in recent months and I love that she's made a circle of friends at her farm. Because she's so used to having been around people, she's missed the opportunity to socialize like a horse. Recent retiree ...

#HORSERACING: 2019 A YEAR IN HORSES
And just like that, another year has passed! 2019 in Horse Racing was unique in that we didn't have any one standout. Many had a chance to shine throughout the year and for the first time in quite some time, the race for Horse of the Year in Canada is wide-open. The fact that the main contenders all come from different Trainers, is a testament to that.
Could it be former claimer-turned Grade I victress STARSHIP JUBILEE who gets the crown or might it be Woodbine fan favourite PINK LLOYD who ...

#HORSERACING: PRINCE x PRINCESS DIARIES – OCTOBER 2019
Honestly, where did the summer go? We have had the busiest August-September ever but we're happy to catch a breather finally and take in what a productive year it's been so far. I'll admit my birthday this year is going to be extra tough without having Billy around, but what one can do is surround themselves with those they love and what better way to lift my spirits than to see our Princess and Prince this weekend?
Princess (A Pic by Mrwill) was such a sight for sore eyes. We're so happy to ...
