Access for owners, other licensees loosened at Laurel Park

With the further loosening of COVID-19 restrictions in most Maryland counties and cities at 5 p.m. June 19, the Maryland Jockey Club and Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association have announced a few policy changes at Laurel Park.

Effective Saturday, June 20, licensed owners will be allowed to access the Laurel barn area, and all Maryland Racing Commission licensees will be granted access to the track apron on live racing days. For the past two weeks, only owners with horses entered to race were permitted to attend.
