The Woodbine Oaks is a Canadian Thoroughbred horse race run annually at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Ontario. Inaugurated in 1956, it is the premier event for Canadian-foaled three-year-old fillies and the first leg of the Canadian Triple Tiara series.
Raced over a distance of 1⅛ miles on Polytrack synthetic dirt, the Woodbine Oaks is currently sponsored by Budweiser and offers a purse of $500,000.
First run at 11/16 miles, since 1959 the distance has been set at 1⅛ miles. Originally called the Canadian Oaks, in 2001 it was changed to the Labatt Woodbine Oaks.
