The Maryland Sprint Stakes, a prestigious race in the world of horse racing, is set to take place on Preakness weekend, with Bill and Corinne Heiligbrodt's Faust aiming for his fifth victory. Faust, a champion in the making, has been on a winning streak, romping by 11 3/4 combined lengths in open six-furlong allowances. The Heiligbrodts, known for their success in the Preakness, are confident in Faust's abilities, despite his lack of experience in graded stakes races. Faust's journey began with a modest purchase price of $59,000, and he has since earned over $300,000 in purse earnings. The race promises an exciting showdown, with Faust facing off against other top contenders like Slam Notion, Celtic Contender, and Bring the Smoke. The Maryland Sprint Stakes is a testament to the Heiligbrodts' expertise in horse racing, and Faust's performance will be a key factor in their continued success in the sport.
