I put Detroit in the same category as Baltimore.
Camden isn't so bad, though that's mostly because there's nobody there anymore. Newark is pretty rough.

Taking the race away wouldn't be right, too much tradition, although I will admit that Pimlico doesn't really strike attention on a national media scale, general people heard of churchill and belmont, but Pimlico? Doesn't sound too appealing, so I understand where the guy who made this thread is coming from, I don't think they will or should take it away, though.

As was so aptly pointed out, they can take the race away, but it won't be called the "Preakness."

The original poster has clearly never been to Hollywood Park or Churchill either then. Wander a few blocks off the premises on a non-Derby day at CD and see where that gets you.

The problem isn't Baltimore or Pimlico, it's Maryland racing which has become strictly second class due to the voters refusal to allow casinos at the tracks. I'm not a fan of casino gambling but it's obvious when you are surrounded by states which allow same and you don't...that's a problem. Various religious right groups have chosen Maryland to make their stand and thus far, they have succeeded.

I was told on here not to walk from the French Quarter to the Fairgrounds during the day. I think some people are a bit too paranoid.
At night is a different story of course.
