The timing seems right for Thewayiam to show how much an eight-month layoff can pay off in Saturday’s $150,000 Stella Artois Gallorette Stakes (G3), one of eight stakes races, four graded, that support the $1.65 million Preakness Stakes (G1) at Pimlico Race Course.

A field of nine was entered for the 68^th running of the Gallorette for fillies and mares 3 and up going 1 1/16 miles on the turf.
