Wild Desert (foaled March 24, 2002 in Ontario, Canada) is a Canadian bred Thoroughbred racehorse who won the 2005 Queen's Plate, Canada's most prestigious race and North America's oldest annually run stakes race. [1]
Originally trained by Kenneth McPeek, following a poor performance in the 2005 Arkansas Derby, [2] the horse was transferred to trainer Richard Dutrow, Jr. The colt did not race again until the June 26 Queen's Plate.
