We hold the total fund for the Queenston 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 1:20.97 in 2010, the Queenston Stakes pays £994 for every second of the race, which is 342nd of the 611 races in horse racing prize money per second and 6th in Canada.
