Robert T. Davies (May 19, 1849 – March 22, 1916) was a Canadian businessman, as well as a Thoroughbred and Standardbred racehorse owner and breeder.
In 1877, Robert Davies founded the competing Dominion Brewery only two blocks to the west on Queen Street.
Ten years later, his success led to the selling of shares in the company to a group of investors arranged by a banking house in London, England.
A daughter of 1898 Kentucky Derby winner Plaudit, Southern Maid was voted the retrospective American Champion Two-Year-Old Filly of 1913.
In 1888, Davies had purchased a large property in the Don Valley from his father-in-law, on which he established a breeding operation that he dubbed Thorncliffe Farms.
