A preview of the week ahead at Parx Racing, including an open allowance with a salty field, plus the list of hot jockeys and trainers
Only three Maryland-based female trainers – Kelly Rubley, Linda Albert, and Nancy Alberts – have had a Preakness starter since 2000. Why?
Laurel Park’s Friday featured allowance includes five runners with at least $400,000 in earnings, topped by seven-time stakes winner Alwaysmining.
Sharing, winner of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, has earned honors as Mid-Atlantic Thoroughbred/The Racing Biz Top Midlantic-bred of 2019.
Alwaysmining, the top Maryland three-year-old of 2019, rediscovered his winning ways with a solid triumph in the Jennings Stakes at Laurel Park.
Eight-year-old John Jones will aim for his third Jennings Stakes title Saturday at Laurel Park against a field including 2019 Preakness runner Alwaysmining.
Alwaysmining, who had a 6-race win streak snapped in the Preakness, will look to end a 4-race losing streak in Saturday’s Native Dancer at Laurel Park.
Grade 2 winner Still Having Fun and five-time stake winner Alwaysmining will meet for the first time in Saturday’s Bender Memorial Stakes at Laurel Park.
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf winner Sharing takes the lead in the latest — and second to last of 2019 — edition of the Mid-Atlantic Thoroughbred/The Racing Biz Top Midlantic-bred Poll.
Maryland-bred Alwaysmining, a 2019 Preakness entrant, is nominated to make his first start in four months in next week’s Dickie Small Stakes at Laurel Park.
