Preakness Weekend • Pimlico Race Course • October 1-3
The 145th Preakness Stakes certainly lived up to the hype of the hashtag “A Jewel To Remember” with the fi lly Swiss Skydiver edging out Kentucky Derby winner and Preakness favorite, Authentic, to win by a neck. Jockey Robby Albarado earned his second Preakness win having been aboard Curlin in 2007. This was the fi rst Preakness win for trainer Kenny McPeek and owner Peter Callahan. Swiss Skydiver’s time of 1:53.28 was the fasted set by a fi lly and sec- ond only to the 1973 Triple Crown winner Secretariat, who set the current Preakness record at 1:53.
Miss Marissa added her third win in a row when she edged out Bonny South to win the Black- Eyed Susan Stakes. Ridden by Daniel Centeno for owner Alfonso Cammarota, Miss Marissa is trained by James Ryerson.
Horacio Karamanos rode Evil Lyn to victory in the $100,000 Hilltop Stakes. Trained by Mike Maker, Evil Lyn sat off the leaders but ran to the outside on the far turn to take the lead in the stretch. Vigilantes Way, ridden by fellow Mary- land jockey Forest Boyce, made a late rush but the Paradise Farms Corp./Da- vid Staudacher fi lly Evil Lyn prevailed to win by a half-length.
Another Maryland-bred victory during Preakness weekend was MCA Racing Stable’s Harpers First Ride winning the $250,000 Pimlico Special on Friday, October 2. Trained by Claudio Gonzalez, the state’s leading trainer for the past three years, Harpers First Ride was ridden by Angel Cruz and was bred by Sagamore Farm.

The Maryland-bred Never Enough Time shook off some pressure to win the $100,000 Skipat Stakes by three-quarters of a length over Liza Star. Owned by breeder R. Larry Johnson and trained by Michael Trom- betta, Never Enough Time took to the front early on and never let up. Jockey Julian Pi- mentel piloted her to the win.
Owner/breeder R. Larry Johnson started off Preakness weekend by winning the $100,000 The Very One Stakes with his homebred A Great Time on October 1. The gelding is also trained by Michael Trombetta and ridden by Julian Pimentel.
Four-time Maryland champion jockey Trevor McCarthy rode Fluffy Socks to win the $150,000 Selima Stakes. Trained by Chad Brown, the Head of Plains Partners LLC homebred Fluffy Socks started near the back of the pack and settled there un- til McCarthy saw an opening and pushed the fi lly through to win by 2 ¼ lengths.
Laki, who is trained out of Laurel Park by Damon Dilodovico, won at the wire in a three- way photo fi nish for the $250,000 Frank De Francis Dash (G3). Owned by Hillside Eques- trian Meadows with jockey Horacio Karamanos in the irons, Laki settled off the pace but began to run down the center of the track in the stretch. Laki, Nitrous and Eastern Bay came to the wire together with Laki earning the win.
