On Haskell day you get 40,000 people who don't know how to bet!! BC day will be excellent this year, I have to believe in the power of the Garden State to pull off the biggest day in racing with the class and dignity it deserves. As far as the racing goes compared to Lone Star, Ghostzapper won didn't he?? Go to the BC enjoy yourself at a great facility and make that ticket money back!!!!
The last Haskell I was at was in 2003. The day at the track was fine but getting out of there was unbelievable. We literally sat in our car in the parking lot for over an hour with out moving out of the parking spot. Finally my wife drove through the lot and over the curb to get on the road. She swore she would not be going back to any more Haskell days. It's a shame because it really is the one day a year that there is decent card in NJ.

I hope I'm wrong, but only time will tell.

Monmouth used to be "my" track but now I prefer Belmont and that is where
