Overskate (1975–1992) was a Canadian Thoroughbred Champion Hall of Fame racehorse. Sired by Nodouble out of the dam Overstate, who was a descendant of the great sire Princequillo as well as Man o' War, Overskate was foaled at his owner's farm in Port Elgin, Ontario.
A small horse, Overskate raced on both grass and dirt surfaces and won major races on sloppy tracks. He received nine Sovereign Awards while racing in Canada and at various tracks in the United States. He set a track record for 9 furlongs (1 1/8 miles) at Assiniboia Downs in Winnipeg, Manitoba and for 11 furlongs (1 3/8 miles) on turf at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
Ridden by jockey Robin Platts, Overskate came off his 1977 two-year-old championship season with a win in the Plate Trial Stakes and then finished second in the 1978 Queen's Plate, Canada's most prestigious race and the first leg of the Canadian Triple Crown. He came back to win the next two Triple Crown races, the Prince of Wales and Breeders' Stakes. Successful at age four and five, the two-time Canadian Horse of the Year retired in 1980 as the all-time leading money winner among Canadian-bred horses.
