Black-Eyed Susans - A Racing Tradition
If you are a horse racing fan, then you absolutely know what these flowers represent. These Black-Eyed Susan flowers are located near the wrought-iron Pimlico gate which is on display at the side of the museum building. My son Jim (our family horse racing expert) tells me that the Black-Eyed Susan, which is the official state flower for Maryland, is draped in blanket form, around the neck of the winning horse at the Preakness in Baltimore. A little history: The Preakness is an American, grade 1 thoroughbred race, for three-year-old horses held on the third Saturday in May each year at Pimlico Race Track in Baltimore, Maryland. The tradition: A long standing tradition is to drape a blanket of Black-Eyed- Susans across the shoulders of the winning horse. The 18x90 inch blanket takes three people two full days to create. First they attach a larger greenery to a perforated spongy rubber base, they then string more than 80 bunches of viking daises together on flocked wire and interweave them into holes in the matte. The ends are then snipped closely and the whole back of the blanket is covered with thick felt. Because Black-Eyed Susans do not bloom until June in Maryland, the center of the daises are daubed with black lacquer to recreate the correct appearance. The blanket is then sprayed with water and refrigerated until presented to the winner of the Preakness. This years winner was the filly, Rachel Alexandra. The Black-Eyed Susans in this photo are in bloom at the National Museum of Racing on Union Street in Saratoga Springs, NY.
