Host of the Maryland Million
Laurel Park Race Track has become one of the regular hosts of the Maryland Million, an event that has become one of the nation's best known single days of horse racing excitement. It was envisioned as a local version of the Breeders Cup, and became so popular with both fans and horsemen that it soon attracted imitators throughout the nation. There are now many such days in different states featuring either state-bred or state-sired horses in festival-like atmospheres.
Maryland Million has become the biggest racing day of the fall, and is eclipsed in local importance only by the Preakness Stakes, the venerable second leg of the American Triple Crown.
