A new partnership between the Maryland Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association and Md. Jockey Club will recognize grooms each racing day.
In her short tenure as Maryland Jockey Club stakes coordinator, 29-year-old Trish Bowman had to navigate a career’s worth of challenges.
1/ST Racing, whose properties include Laurel Park and Pimlico, will offer free Equibase past performances to all its tracks through year-end.
A big group of riders came out for Canter for a Cause to ride at Pimlico while supporting Thoroughbred aftercare.
The closure of Laurel Park because of the track surface has been a trial for many. But avoiding it in future isn’t just a matter of rebuilding the track.
The Maryland Jockey Club will “pause” turf racing at Pimlico this weekend to permit the company to do “enhanced maintenance” on the course.
The scheduled eight-race Friday card at Pimlico Race Course has been scrapped, a victim of the weather.
Sal Sinatra, president of the Maryland Jockey Club for the last seven years, will leave that post in two weeks to become head of Equibase.
Bob Baffert won’t have a horse in the Belmont, but all anyone can talk about is Bob Baffert. It’s exhausting, and another whiff.
Drug test results on three Bob Baffert-trained horses, including Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit, are due back Friday afternoon.
