Fast and firm for the 14 race Haskell card — thought I would take a shot handicapping on this big day, so let’s see how I do.

Fast and firm for Haskell Day At Monmouth with a great 14-race card on tap.  Had a 5-1 winner in the last race yesterday, so I will try and keep up the momentum today.

In race 8, Stallwakin” Dude (#7) cuts back from 7 furlongs against better and should sit a perfect trip right behind the speed and run them down late — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 5 and 3.

In race 5, Best Actor (#7) is not so reliable on the win end, but has the best numbers and the pace should be hot to set up late run today — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 9 and 1.  Here’s the entire card and hope that American Pharoah doesn’t get cooked in a front end duel in the Haskell.  Good luck to everyone!
