Black-Eyed Susan Day, which this year attracted more than 42,000, is a celebration of the spirit and strength of women, and helps to raise awareness for the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance and Susan G. Komen Maryland. The afternoon was highlighted by Commissioner's victory in the Pimlico Special (gr. III) and Keen Pauline's victory in the Black-Eyed Susan (gr. II).
