Haskin may come off too strong as a cheerleader sometimes but given the choice between that a few poison pens we have out there "covering the sport" I'll take Haskin every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
Hes passionate and he loves the sport. He doesn't claim to be a handicapping guru and he doesn't claim to have all the answers, but he does indeed go to the track and talk to the people he writes about, unlike many.

He doesn't take cheap shots at folks, and he doesn't blame every pick-6 he loses on a trainer "who is cheating".
The very worst guys we have covering this sport are the "handicapping geniuses" who don't know a bowed tendon from a quartercrack and have never even been around a barn other than to pass by and ask a trainer if he can bet his first time starter later that day.
