Undefeated pacing colt Beau Jangles, reigning Horse of the Year in both Canada and the U.S., headlines the list of the 54 three-year-old pacers nominated to the 2026 edition of the $1 million Pepsi North America Cup.

The Canadian classic is scheduled for Saturday, June 13 at Woodbine Mohawk Park with eliminations to be raced the preceding Saturday on June 6. Race dates are pending regulatory approval by the Alcohol Gaming Commission of Ontario.
