Before Orb even hits the gate for the 138th Preakness Stakes, the party will be in full swing at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs.
The track in Northeast PA will get the celebration underway at 2:00 p.m., with the party tent, patio bars, and new Trackside Concession Stands opening with ice cold beverages. The featured drink will be the Black-Eyed Susan, the official drink of the Preakness Stakes, in the souvenir glass. Johnny Rockets will have delicious grilled burgers and hot dogs available for sale on the track apron as well.
The betting windows will open bright and early at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, with Post Time for Pimlico at 10:45 a.m. Pacer’s Clubhouse will begin serving dinner at 3:00 p.m., by reservation only. Free admission and free parking are in full effect for that day, as always, at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs.
Live harness racing will immediately follow the Preakness Stakes, and there are 16 races on the card, with 8 divisions of the Pennsylvania Stallion Series for 3-year-old pacing colts and geldings.
Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs has live harness racing Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday, and will pick up Friday nights in June and July. Post Time is 6:30 p.m.
