This used to be a top class 10f race known as the Monmouth H, then the Amory L Haskell H (before they moved that name to the Monmouth Invitational H). Champions like Bold Ruler, Nashua, Dedicate, Carry Back, Sword Dancer, Bold Bidder, and First Landing, won the old Monmouth H, as did other top horses like Verbatim, Royal Glint, Majestic Light, Decidedly, Mongo, Bold Hour, Hatchet Man..., They reduced the distance to 9f in 1979 and it has been mostly downhill ever since.
