Haskell Stakes: The Key Monmouth Park Stats To Look For
Recent Run In Last 8 Weeks:
With ALL 10 of the last Haskell winners having raced inside the last 2 months, then this is the first trend to note. Of the 8 runners most fit the bill, but the Bob Baffert runner – Arabian Knight – falls down having not been out for 175 and when winning at Oaklawn Park back in January.
Winning Between 2-5 Times:
Next up is to look for past wins as 90% of the last 10 winners had been successful between 2-5 times in the past. The good news here is that all 8 runners fit this stat.
Respect Horses From Gates 2,3,6 & 7:
Over the last 10 years the magic gates have been 2,3,6 & 7 – with 9 of the last 10 Haskell Stakes winners hailing from one of these starting points. It might also pay to note that 50% of those 10 winners came from stalls 6 or 7.
This year this would be a plus for Awesome Strong (2), Salute The Stars (3), Howgreatisnate (6) and Extra Anejo (7).
Having 6 Or More Previous Runs Is a Plus:
Experience has counted for a lot in the Haskell Stakes too. Since 2013, a massive 80% of winners had previously raced between 6-8 times before. Of the 8 runners, Tapit Trice (7 runs) and Howgreatisnate (8 runs) have this on their side.

Look For Horses That Finished 1st or 2nd Last Time:
Heading to the Haskell Stakes off the back of a win or second has been an advantage too, with 8 of the last 10 winners falling into this bracket. Arabian Knight, Extra Anejo, Salute The Stars and Geaux Rocket Ride fit the bill.
Running In The Kentucky Derby Is a Positive:
Churchill Downs Triple Crown experience is next, with another 80% of the last 10 winners having run in the Kentucky Derby earlier that season – with 2 winning it. Of course, this year we’ve got the KD winner in Mage to try and back up this Haskell Stakes trend, with Tapit Trice having also run there (7th).
Favorites Have Won 50% Of The Last 10:
The betting market is tight, with Arabian Knight, Mage and Tapit Trice all popular at the head of the betting – so we’ll have to see which one goes off as the market leader. Whichever one does though, has a positive stat on their side with half of the last 10 favorites winning.
Baffert, Pletcher and Cox The Stables To Note:
We’ve already mentioned the top record of the Bob Baffert barn in the Haskell Stakes – he’s won the prize 9 times. But it’s also worth mentioning Todd Pletcher with 3 wins and the Brad H. Cox camp, who have won the last two runnings.
All three have top chances again – Baffert has Arabian Knight, Pletcher runs Tapit Trice and Cox has Salute The Stars as he looks for a famous three-timer in the race.

Haskell Stakes Trends Picks
You can’t ignore the Bob Baffert runner Arabian Knight, but the long absence from the track is a negative with all of the last 10 Haskell Stakes winners having raced in the last few months.
Tapit Trice and Mage have their Kentucky Derby form to back them up – with 8 of the last 10 winners taking in that Churchill Downs race. However, it’s worth noting that both have to also give away 3lbs to the rest.
So, the call is to side with two – Extra Anejo and Salute The Stars.
The Steven Asmussen-trained Extra Anejo, who was a top winner last time out at Ellis Park. Yes, this is harder and is up in trip, but he’s a lightly-raced horse that should have more to come and the yard know whats needed here having won the pot in 2009 with Rachel Alexandra.
Salute The Stars will be tryiing to give the Cox camp their third win in-a-row in this race and the way he flew up the straight to win last time in the Pegasus Stakes was impressive. Three of the last 10 Haskell Stakes winners also took that Pegasus route with both Verrazano (2013) and Mandaloun (2021) winning both. The last-named was also trained by Brad H. Cox which is the added bonus.
