The Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, established in 1870, is set for demolition due to its deteriorating condition, with the Preakness Stakes relocating to Laurel Park in 2026 during construction, aiming to return in 2027. This Saturday marks the 150th running of the Preakness, a nostalgic event for trainers like Hall of Famer D. Wayne Lukas and two-time Triple Crown-winning trainer Bob Baffert, who reflect on their memorable experiences and victories at the historic track. As the demolition approaches, the legacy of Pimlico and its charm will be greatly missed by the racing community.
