The Stronach Group Feb. 27, in meetings with Maryland Jockey Club employees, explained its new 1/ST brand program that is geared toward reinventing the racing and gaming experience at its various properties.
The 1/ST initiative, which includes new graphics for live racing signals at the company’s tracks, was presented by David Wilson, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Guest Experience for the TSG.
“It comes down to the guest experience,” Wilson said. “Every department needs to be thinking, ‘What is this going to look like five years from now, 10 years from now, and what do I see every day that can be fixed?’ This is really a bottom-up approach.”




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.
