## Resource

The Grade 1, $1 million Haskell Stakes highlights the conversations as the crew returns from hiatus to go live, or at least as live as can be, episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Former Philadelphia Daily News sports writer turned TV personality Dick Jerardi weighs in on Monmouth Park's signature race, which features beaten Kentucky Derby favorite Further Ado and Preakness winner Napoleon Solo. He also talks about defending his 2025 victory in the Haskell Betting Challenge. Chad Summers, who trains Napoleon Solo, discusses his colt who he believes still can mount a challenge to dual classic winner Golden Tempo in the battle for the 3-year-old male championship. He also talks about controversial jockey Paco López, whose 30-day suspension is on appeal, allowing him to ride in Saturday's feature. Horse Racing Nation 's Mark Midland takes his turn in the handicappers rotation to analyze the Haskell and other weekend races. Co-hosts John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park offer their popular host chat. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.
