  • Manitoba Derby Presented by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Assiniboia Downs Thursday, July 29, 2021 - 11:00 A.M
    Preview of the Manitoba Derby Presented by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Assiniboia Downs Thursday, July 29, 2021 - 11:00 a.m. 2020 Manitoba Derby Winner Mongolian Wind Owner: Mongolian Stable & Andrew Stronach Trainer: Wade Eno Jockey: Wilmer Galviz (Jason Halstead photos) Presented by Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Manitoba Derby By Bob Gates Race Historian The first “Derby” was run in 1930; although from 1930 to 1933 it was known as the Manitoba Stakes. In 1934 the name of the race was changed to the Manitoba Derby. It should come as no surprise that our Derby was the brainchild of Robert James Speers, the Father of Thoroughbred Racing in western Canada. Speers established the race for horsemen to showcase three-year-old thoroughbreds foaled in western Canada. In 1936 the Derby was opened to all horses bred in Canada. The race was run annually at old Polo Park racetrack with the exception of 1937 when it was held at Whittier Park in St. Boniface. In 1941 the name of the race was changed to the Canadian Derby. Few people realize that the heart and soul of the prestigious Canadian Derby can be found in Winnipeg and that the Canadian Derby was “born” out of the Manitoba Derby. At that time, Canada was the only major country that did not have a national “derby,” so R. J. Speers sacrificed "Manitoba" for a national name. The Canadian Derby was run at Polo Park race track until it closed in 1956 and the race was relocated to Edmonton. Jack Hardy tried to bring the race back to Winnipeg when Assiniboia Downs opened in 1958, but was unsuccessful so the Canadian Derby is still run in Edmonton.
