He was a big talent and great fun to be around. His ATR visits telling stories with Haskin always made for great radio. He took tremendous pride in his craft and captured racing -- and so many subjects of his lens -- with great vision and flair. Am glad to have known him and treasure the picture below that he provided me at Churchill the first year I officially covered Derby as a member of the media.
Steve Haskin on ATR to remember Mike at 10:30 today.
