Laurel, Md. — On Friday, at Laurel Park, a 3-year-old colt named Hit Zero died shortly after running in the opening race as Preakness weekend began; the horse was trained by Brittany Russell, ridden by her husband Sheldon Russell, and owned by ItsTheJHo LLC and Evan Trommer, track officials said, and veterinary staff responded immediately. Track and state racing officials said a necropsy will be conducted and the Maryland Racing Commission will report findings under HISA disclosure requirements; organizers continued Preakness activities at Laurel Park, noted a separate Race 5 collision that left both horses reportedly fine, and confirmed the Monday post-position draw set the 14-horse field including Taj Mahal as an expected contender.
