When the weather gets at its Jersey Shore best in the summer, a day at Monmouth matches a day at any racetrack in America. It's well worth a visit.

It's completely false. Monmouth is a very nice track and I enjoy going their with my boys. But, the racing on most days is not very good. In my opinion it doesn't even belong in the same sentence as Belmont and Saratoga.
Yeah, and no one cares about opening and closing day at Saratoga.
