The Maryland Jockey Club and owner 1/ST Racing have released a trainers’ guide for the Black-Eyed Susan Stakes and Preakness Stakes programs at Pimlico Race Course May 20-21.
The guide covers stabling and training, including specifics for horses entered graded and non-graded stakes; and medication and veterinary treatments that are permitted or not permitted. All stakes horses will be located in designated barns in the Hayward Avenue barn area, which includes the stakes barn.




The MTHA will hold a public meeting Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 11 a.m. Eastern Time via Zoom to discuss a proposed digital auction process for horses receiving two or more claims in a claiming race.

An October 7 Daily Record article about proposed Maryland Racing Commission regulations has generated questions about increased penalties, medication enforcement and the state’s investment in Thoroughbred racing.
