Haskell Day!
July 19, 2025 from 11:00am to 07:00pm








Summer’s premier event is Haskell Day!
Join us for the shore’s biggest party and the season’s premier race.
On the track, the country’s best 3-year-olds converge on Monmouth Park for the $1,000,000 Haskell Stakes. The day also features five additional stakes races highlighted by the Grade 2 United Nations.
On the wagering front, play our special $500,000 Guaranteed Pick 4 (ending in the Haskell) and $300,000 Guaranteed Late Pick 5.
On the party front, dress to impress for the chance to be awarded Best Hat or Best Dressed Couple. Winners will receive a $100 bet on the Haskell.
First race 12pm. Get here early to receive your FREE commemorative Haskell Hat.
