Soaring Free wins the Highlander Stakes on Queen's Plate day

Terence Dulay
The Grade 3 Scotts Highlander Handicap featured older horses sprinting 6 furlongs on the turf. Reigning Canadian Horse of the Year Soaring Free, who also won this event last year, was sent off the 2-5 favorite and did not disappoint his backers. He drew away to a 2 length victory in a time of 1:08.03 over the firm course and increased his career earnings to over $2 million.
