Monmouth Park's Stakes Slate Comes With Fixed Odds, Boosted Purses

Monmouth Park unveiled its 2022 stakes schedule on Tuesday. The marquee event for 3-year-olds coming out of the Triple Crown season is on July 23. Monmouth opens on May 7, the same day as the Kentucky Derby. Its season runs through Sept. 17. Fixed-odds betting system is expected to be implemented this season.

Haskell Day is one of two Grade 1 events on Monmouth's 50-stakes slate. The other is the Grade One United Nations, which runs on the same July 23 card as the Haskell. United UNN enjoyed a $100,000 purse bump, to $600,00.

Monmouth Park's 50 stakes offer more than $8.1 million in purses. Monmouth's other big card is the week before the Haskell. The June 18 card features four stakes events: the Listed Pegasus for 3-year-olds and three Grade 3s.
