The Maryland Jockey Club will move the nine August racing dates scheduled for Pimlico Race Course to September given approval of the request by the Maryland Racing Commission May 3

The switch is a result of a previously scheduled event at Pimlico—the 2022 Moonrise Festival Aug. 6-7. So Laurel Park will take over the following racing dates (all Friday through Sunday): Aug. 5-7, Aug. 12-14 and Aug. 19-21.
