	The first Preakness Stakes was run in 1873 as one of the triple crown horse racing tracks showcases.
		Pimlico Race Course had opened just three years earlier in 1870 and the horse that won the opening day’s feature race, The Dinner Party Stakes (now known as the Dixie Handicap or Dixie), was a horse named Preakness.
		The race was to be a two-miler for three-year-olds with a purse of $15,000, the then-staggering amount was proposed by Gov. Bowie, who used the occasion to launch the building of Pimlico Race Course so the race, to be dubbed The Dinner Party Stakes, could be run in Maryland.
		The Preakness Stakes was run seventeen years in a row at Pimlico before financial difficulties forced the race to be run in 1890 at Morris Park in New York and then for 15 years, of and on, at Gravesend track in Brooklyn, New York.
