Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown (Boundary) will make his next start over the turf in the Sept. 13 Monmouth S. at Monmouth Park. “We were looking for a grass race for him and the Monmouth grass surface should be perfect for Big Brown,” said Michael Iavarone, co-president and co-CEO of IEAH Stables. “Monmouth was cordial enough to put up a nice purse for him and the fans really took to Big Brown last time he was there.” Monmouth Park officials agreed to raise the purse of the $200,000 race to $500,000 should Big Brown run in the nine-furlong event. Big Brown most recently captured Monmouth's GI Haskell Invitational Aug. 3.
