All expected Haskell favorites at Monmouth
Horseracing Betting Lines
07/03/2009 -
Oceanport, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two days after Arkansas Derby winner Papa
Clem arrived at Monmouth Park for next month's Haskell Invitational. Belmont
Stakes champ Summer Bird settled into his stall at the Jersey shore track.
With the arrival of Summer Bird and Papa Clem, the three projected favorites
for the track's marquee race are now stabled here. Illinois Derby winner
Musket Man is based at Monmouth Park.
Trained by Tim Ice, Summer Bird arrived by van from Louisiana early Friday
morning. Ice accompanied the colt from Louisiana Downs with a stopover at
Churchill Downs. A sleepy Ice said the three-year-old handled the trip better
than the trainer.
"I'm tired, but he got off the van full of himself at Churchill," noted Ice,
"and he was full of himself when we got here. He shipped great. I just want to
take a nap.
"He'll be out on the track to train on Saturday and Sunday, and if
everything's okay with him, he'll work on Monday. He's due for a work. After
that, I'll get him on a Sunday work rotation. I like to work him a week before
a race, and the Haskell is on a Sunday, so that will be his work day after
this week."
Summer Bird, 11-1 in the Belmont Stakes, has two wins in five starts this year
for $723,040. He was third to Papa Clem in the Arkansas Derby and sixth in the
Kentucky Derby.
Owned and bred by Drs. K.K. and V. Devi Jayaraman, Summer Bird will be ridden
in the $1 million Haskell by three-time Eclipse Award winner Kent Desormeaux.
The pair combined to capture the Belmont Stakes and the jockey won last year's
Haskell with Big Brown.
Papa Clem will tune-up for the Haskell with a start in the track's Long Branch
Stakes on Saturday, July 11. Local favorite Musket Man is training up to the
Haskell on Sunday, August 2.
