Queen's Plate (2014)
Lexie Lou (foaled February 26, 2011 in Ontario) is a Canadian Thoroughbred racehorse. In 2014, she won the Queen's Plate and two legs of the Canadian Triple Tiara on her way to winning three Sovereign Awards. She has also won three graded stakes in the United States and Canada, and finished second to American Horse of the Year California Chrome in the 2014 Hollywood Derby.
Lexie Lou was bred by Paradox Farm in Ontario. Her dam is Oneexcessivenite, a California bred mare who won 4 times in 18 starts, and whose three previous foals were all unraced. Lexie Lou's sire, Sligo Bay, is an Irish bred son of leading sire in Great Britain and Ireland Sadler's Wells and has been a moderate success at stud in Canada.
Lexie Lou was sold to John Ross for $5,577 at the 2012 Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society yearling sale. Ross was her owner and trainer during her two-year-old campaign in 2013. She was sold after her first start of 2014 to Gary Barber, the chairman and CEO of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), for $300,000. She was then moved to the barn of Mark Casse, who at the time had already won six Sovereign Awards as outstanding trainer.
In 2013, Lexie Lou raced eight times, all at Woodbine racetrack, in races for Canadian-bred fillies. She won three times and finished second twice. On August 28, she was awarded the Muskoka Stakes by disqualification after finishing second by a nose. She then finished second in both the Victorian Queen and Princess Elizabeth Stakes before winning the South Ocean Stakes by three lengths. She was the favorite for the Ontario Lassie Stakes on December 14 but finished third, a neck and a nose behind the first two filles.
