Verrazano, ridden by John Velazquez, won the 46th running of the $1 million William Hill Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park on July 28. Verrazano’s victory was by the largest margin in the history of the Haskell, finishing 9 3/4 lengths ahead of second-place Power Broker. Story and more photos, page 26. SCOTT FRIEDMAN
