Preakness Stakes shifts to Sunday in Triple Crown change

Changes to the horse racing calendar will see the 2027 Preakness Stakes moved to May 23, occurring three weeks after the Kentucky Derby, marking the first time it will be held on a Sunday. The adjustment aims to boost attendance and encourage more Derby winners to compete in the Preakness, which has traditionally been run two weeks after the Derby. The move is part of a broader six-race championship series introduced by Churchill Downs and NYRA to showcase top three-year-olds and create a season-long racing narrative.
