Much is said about his "dapple report" in the days and weeks leading up to the Derby, but in 2006 he wrote an article about Premium Tap before the Breeder's Cup Classic. I hadn't considered Premium Tap at all. My strongest opinion was that Bernardini and Invasor were the very best horses and Lava Man was not going to hit the board (original I know). I went back and watched all of Premium Taps races after reading his article and this was the ticket I came up with afterwards:

Bernardini / Invasor, Premium Tap, Giacomo / Invasor, Premium Tap, Giacomo

Obviously after the race was run I wanted to jump off the largest bridge I could find, but I never forgot that Haskin article!
