BetMakers, Monmouth Offer $1-Million Bonus to Haskell Winner

Authentic | Coady

BetMakers Technology Group, in partnership with Monmouth Park, will sponsor a $1-million bonus to a horse that sweeps this year's GI TVG.com Haskell S., GI Runhappy Travers S. and the GI Breeders' Cup Classic. Authentic (Into Mischief) earned the inaugural bonus, which, due to the pandemic, included the Haskell, GI Kentucky Derby and Breeders' Cup Classic.

“We're thrilled to sponsor the BetMakers Bonanza again after the enormous effort by Authentic last year,” said Dallas Baker, BetMakers' New Jersey-based Head of International Operations. “We're fully committed to supporting the U.S. racing industry and we see the Bonanza as a fantastic initiative from Dennis Drazin [CEO and Chairman of Darby Development, LLC, operator of Monmouth Park] and the Monmouth Park team. We are fully behind this.”

The $1-million Haskell will be run this Saturday at Monmouth Park and is a “Win and You're In” race offering the winner an automatic berth to the Breeders' Cup Classic.

The Travers will be held Aug. 28 and the Breeders' Cup Classic will be held at Del Mar Nov. 6.
