Claim 1: “The 151st Preakness Stakes will look different this year, with horses running at Laurel Park while Pimlico undergoes renovations.”
DISPUTED
The evidence contains a direct contradiction regarding the location of the 151st Preakness Stakes. The Paulick Report and one web search result state the 151st Preakness will be run at Laurel Park due to construction. However, the Wikipedia entry explicitly states that while other racing dates were transferred to Laurel Park, the 2025 Preakness Stakes (which would be the 151st running) is an exception and will NOT be transferred, implying it remains at Pimlico or is handled differently than the general racing dates. Because a highly authoritative source (Wikipedia) contradicts the news reports on this specific detail, the claim is disputed.
