"Also, looking at the Thoro-Graph figures for the leading Derby contenders, Itsmyluckyday is by far the most consistently fast 3-year-old in the country, putting together back-to-back negative numbers. Not only didn’t he bounce off his monster figure in the Gulfstream Park Derby, he actually ran faster in the Holy Bull."

Haskins has much faith in Thoro-Graph numbers I see.

Haskin does the SAME thing every year..He lists his derby Dozen, changes and adjusts it frequently in the months leading up to the Derby, remarks on his "fringe" outside the top dozen contenders, then takes credit if any of 30 horses wins...It appears this year he is of the belief the East Coast has the stronger crop...Give him time, he will flip-flop his opinion...

Agree with CB. Great info but just another mans opinion. He reminds me of that capper based in Florida. Crush the Derby and BC author.He rates his horses 1 thru 5. Gives you 10 horses to bet on top and then criss cross with all of em. I forgot his name.

Agree with Fredo who agrees with Claimboxx who agrees with Mary who often agrees with Lester.

Although I enjoy reading his stuff, Steve Haskins would fit right in at TVG.

I say stick to one horse, one team, one broad, one restaurant, etc, etc.
