Horse Racing

US Triple Crown 2027

American racing's greatest prize: three historic races run over five weeks in spring 2027 — the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs (1 May), the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico in Baltimore (mid-May) and the Belmont Stakes at the rebuilt Belmont Park near New York (early June). Only thirteen horses in history have swept all three, the last being Justify in 2018, and each leg is a huge occasion in its own right. Exact 2027 dates for the Preakness and Belmont may shift slightly pending the racing calendar, but the venues are set — book hotels near each host city and follow the chase for immortality.
