Monmouth Park’s $1,000 Haskell Handicapping Challenge on Saturday, July 20, saw another record field and finished with New Jersey’s own Pete Rogers atop the leaderboard.

Rogers’ $6,095.50 bankroll was best of 323 total entries and landed the Summit, N.J., resident a first prize of a Breeders’ Cup Betting Challenge seat and $21,000.

In total, Saturday’s Haskell contest awarded 10 BCBC seats, two seats to the National Horseplayers Championship and $50,000 in cash.

Contest players could participate online using TVG/4NJBETS, Xpressbet and HPI. All players needed to wager a minimum of $100 on five Monmouth Park races. Available wagering pools were win, place, show, exacta and daily double.
