As opposed to a litany of know-nothings that have never set foot on a backstretch, Steve Haskin has been welcome on every shedrow in the country for 40 years. He learned the game's most intricate lessons from Charles Hatton and Joe Hirsch, and has earned the trust and respect of trainers, owners, track management, horseplayers and fans decade after decade. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I'm embarrassed by some of what's been written here about a person who loves the sport as much or more than anyone who has ever written about it, and who's been as generous to me as anyone I've ever known.

No need to blast Steve H. Being mean sucks and anyway, the gambling Gods don’t like it. Kasept hit the nail on the head. No matter what the topic, when Steve H. is involved in the conversation his years of knowledge, experience, and friendships shine through. He’s a great guest and when he shares his stories and experiences with us he tells it in such a way that it makes me feel as though I was there. Case in point, the conversation about Skip Away.

Good thread here. I knew I was cooked too when Donna said Super Saver looked drawn and seems to have lost some weight. I also thought where was this info prior to them loading into the gate? Super Saver was in all my tix. I don't blame Steve H. though. I'm fairly new here but I don't think Steve H. comes across touting himself as a horseman. I really enjoy listening to all the opinions. I take it all in, think about it over and over and over again. Then throw darts at a dart board. I'll tell you what I missed for the Preakness was Mike Welsch's daily work reports. Is he married?
