We hold the total fund for the Marine Stakes and no separate winner's cheque. What the winner takes is a rule the racecourse sets rather than a national one, and it varies race by race.
Run in 1:44.94 in 2026, the Marine Stakes pays £767 for every second of the race, which is 399th of the 611 races in horse racing prize money per second and 9th in Canada.
