It is time for them to run  

In the Jersey Shore tourist sun  

Continuing their three-year-old campaign  

Feeling the warmth of youthful fame  

Before being sent out to be studs  

And replaced by next year’s Kentucky rose buds  

Haskell Day is here  

Patrons arrive looking for some hugging and cheer  

Complimentary hats, losing tickets and a tear  

From Sinatra to Springsteen  

Thoroughbred adolescents with a celebrity dream  

Four legged athletes maturing fast  

Experience a tradition steeped in the twin river community past  

Historically owners once took on the NFL with an AFL fight  

Wearing track colors green and white  

Phil, Sonny and sparkly clean Leon pumping gas named Hess  

They played Orange Super Bowl chess  

Making the Colts confess  

Then welcomed Baltimore  

Saying ‘let the Giant Washington team show you the door’  

When the leagues got married  

Suddenly networks wanted games to carry  

Donnie Mc Beth, Craig Peret and Julie Krone  

Someone may want to get the press and ledger on the phone  

This is going to be some race  

Media may want to give the finish line photo some space  

Distanced at a mile and eight  

Curved turns and stretches where they run straight  

In the end  

Winners and losers head over to reporters to defend  

Applause rings out  

Congratulations are shout  

Exceptionally large ponies get sponge baths  

Picture taken with smiles and laughs  

Soon night life will arrive  

Crowds leave dining options they do cry  

Prime rib featured inside the Squire’s Pub 

Or a boardwalk hot dog grilled by Mrs. Max’s counter hub  

No racing tomorrow  

Is no horror  

Since it is sun day  

Ocean beach time is what they say  

Surf Rider or Ship Ahoy  

Trade wind clubbing a Garden State joy  

Direction's do state across the street from the Sea Bright Rum Runner  

And perfect together during a Monmouth Park seasonal summer
