Are you thinking of planning a celebration for the final jewel of the Triple Crown and not sure where to start? Horse racing watch parties are a lot of fun and hosting one might be easier than you’d expect.

The Belmont Stakes is days away and we’ve got a potential Triple Crown on the line at Belmont Park with American Pharoah, jockey Victor Espinoza, trainer Bob Baffert and owners the Zayats. One of my favorite things about big days like the Belmont Stakes is that it’s fun to go all out when dressing up!

If the happy crowd at the 140th running of the Preakness Stakes looks up, they will see the red and blue A-Star 350 helicopter high above them, flown by Capt. Roy Taylor from the Baltimore NBC affiliate WBAL. He is an iconic Charm City fixture and is proud that he has flown every Preakness since 1999.
