Living on the other side of the continent I'll leave to others to judge the live attendance attributes of each facility. Purely from a racing standpoint, Laurel lays over Pimlico. Pimlico can't run anything between 6f and 8.5f on dirt nor anything between 5f and 8f on turf. Plus it's a standard-width turf course so they can only run a limited number of races on it. At Laurel, they can run 5.5f and 6f on turf plus the wide course allows them to use multiple lanes so they can run many more grass races than Pimlico. And Laurel can run 7f and 8f on dirt.
