TVG, America's horse racing network, will be live on site at Monmouth Park this weekend to feature the $1 million TVG.com Haskell Stakes (GI) as well as a loaded card featuring four additional graded stakes races.
The TVG.com Haskell (GI), a premier race for three-year-olds, will offer the winner both points towards a spot in the starting gate in the Kentucky Derby (GI) in September and an automatic berth in the Breeders' Cup Classic (GI) as part of the Breeders' Cup “Win and You're In” Challenge Series. The 2020 Breeders' Cup will be held November 6-7 at Keeneland.
Monmouth Park will also host the $300,000 United Nations Stakes (GI) on Saturday which will be run at 1 3/8 miles on the turf. The race has drawn a field of nine including Arklow, a multiple graded stakes winner with over $1.8 million in career earnings. Trained by Brad Cox, the six-year-old son of Arch will have Mike Smith aboard.
There will be expert analysis and exclusive interviews on-site at Monmouth Park from Tom Cassidy and Matt Carothers.
In addition to Monmouth Park, TVG will be broadcasting racing from Gulfstream Park, Laurel Park, Woodbine and more all weekend.
