1 50 th RUNNING $1,000,000 HASKELL INVITATIONAL TO BE RUN JULY 30, 2017 GRADE I 3-YEAR-OLDS BY INVITATION 1 1/8 MILES STAKES RECORD: 1:47.00 MAJESTIC LIGHT (1976), BET TWICE (1987) HISTORIC HIGHLIGHTS The 2017 running of the Haskell Invitational marks the 50 th renewal of the race named for the first president and chairman of the Monmouth Park Jockey Club, Amory Lawrence Haskell. With a purse of $1 million, the Haskell is the richest invitational event contested in North America. Amory L. Haskell was born in New York City in Following his graduation from Princeton University in 1916, he began a business career with the New Jersey Zin Company. That was interrupted by two years with the Naval Aviation Service in World War I. After his tour of duty, Haskell joined the General Motors Corporation and rose to the position of vice-president in charge of the company s export division. He left General Motors to form Triplex Safety Glass Company and was president and chairman of the board when he sold it. Shortly before World War II, after several years of intense lobbying in which Haskell played a prominent role, an amendment to the New Jersey State Constitution was approved by referendum, legalizing parimutuel wagering for Thoroughbred and Amory L. Haskell standardbred racing. Haskell then organized a group of prominent New Jersey residents to build a modern Thoroughbred racetrack in Monmouth County. Appointed president and chairman of Monmouth Park Jockey Club in 1945, he guided that organization through its opening in 1946 and continued at the helm until his death on April 12, In 1968, the Monmouth Park Directors honored his memory with the Amory L. Haskell Handicap, a race for older horses. In 1981, the Haskell name was transferred to a mile and an eighth invitational for the nation s top 3-year-olds. In 1995, Serena s Song became the first filly ever to win the Haskell. Buick sponsored the Haskell and the purse was raised to $750,000 for the 1996 renewal. For the third straight year, the Haskell was captured by a champion when Skip Away, the top 3-year-old colt, took the race. In 1997, the purse of the race was raised to $1 million, making it the richest invitational event run in North America. Touch Gold, the horse who denied Silver Charm the Triple Crown by winning the Belmont Stakes, captured the race. The 2001 edition hosted an all-time record crowd of 47,127 as they watched Point Given take the event for trainer Bob Baffert and jockey Gary Stevens. The purse for that year s running was boosted to $1.5 million and produced the 3-Year-Old Champion and Horse of the Year, the fifth Horse of the Year to compete in the Haskell. The 2003 Haskell saw New Jersey records fall across the board as 53,638, a record for the Garden State, were on hand to see Peace Rules go wire-to-wire in the million dollar event. The total handle of $12,536,345 was another New Jersey record, as was the $3,726,562 wagered on the Haskell alone. Trained by Bobby Frankel, Peace Rules defeated Sky Mesa and the Kentucky Derbyand Preakness winner Funny Cide, the latter went on to be named champion 3-year-old. The 2007 Haskell once again showcased the top 3-year-olds as Any Given Saturday gave his connections back-to-back wins in the $1 million race. Curlin, who finished third in the Haskell, returned to Monmouth in the fall to win the Breeders Cup Classic and clinch Horse of the Year honors. Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Big Brown rolled down the center of the course with a powerful late kick to win the 2008 Haskell. The 2008 champion 3-year-old colt returned to Monmouth later that summer to win the inaugural Monmouth Stakes on turf, his final career race. One year later, Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra splashed home an easy winner over 3-year-old champion Summer Bird to become the second filly ever to capture North America s richest invitational. In 2010, eventual 3-year-old champion Lookin At Lucky won the Haskell for trainer Bob Baffert, giving the conditioner a record four wins in Monmouth s premier event. Baffert won his fifth Haskell in 2011 when Coil defeated a field that included Preakness winner Shackleford and Belmont champ Ruler on Ice. He took his record sixth Haskell and third in a row in 2012 when Paynter powered to an impressive 3¾ length score. In 2013, Verrazano set a win-margin record by trouncing his Haskell foes by 9¾ lengths, giving trainer Todd Pletcher his third Haskell victory. In 2014, Bayern dominated his foes drawing off to a 7 ¼ length score en route to a victory in that year s Breeders Cup Classic. Among the field was 7-5 favorite Untapable, who went on to capture the Breeders Cup Distaff and an Eclipse Award for top 3-year-old filly. In 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah made the Haskell his next stop after capturing the Belmont Stakes. Giving Bob Baffert his record eighth Haskell win, American Pharoah cruised to a geared down victory under Victor Espinoza before a record New Jersey crowd of 60,983. In the colors of Zayat Stables, American Pharoah led to record handle of over $20 million as the 1-10 favorite easily won the winner s share of the $1.75 million record purse.
