From a Maryland Jockey Club release
Seventy-one conditioners entered horses Saturday at Laurel Park, including 23 with multiple starters.
Robin Graham will saddle runners in five different races. The 58-year-old has four Maryland Million victories during her career: Trump Mahal (1996 Turf), Vaguely Rich (1999 Ladies), Gin Talking (2000 Oaks) and Richetta (2003 Lassie).
“I love Maryland Million day,” Graham said. “Winning a race in New York is a big deal but winning here on Saturday is great because we get to do this in front of our friends.”
King Leatherbury and Dale Capuano sit atop the Maryland Million trainer standings with 10 victories each. Both have runners tomorrow.
“We have had good luck on Maryland Million day throughout the years,” Capuano said. “It is a big day and we always want to go out there and have something to run that is good enough to win.”
First post for the 11-race program is 12:15 p.m. at Laurel Park.
