Pinkman jumps to second in this week’s Poll
October 13, 2015,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Pinkman moved from fourth to second in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll thanks to his victory in the Kentucky Futurity while Freaky Feet Pete joined the Top 10 at No. 10 following his defeat of No. 1 Wiggle It Jiggleit in last weekend’s Indiana Sire Stakes championship.
Wiggle It Jiggleit remained in the top spot. Mission Brief, who finished second in the Kentucky Filly Futurity, slid from second to third and Bee A Magician, who was sixth in the Yonkers International Trot, dropped from third to fourth. Southwind Frank moved up two spots to fifth following his world-record performance in a division of the International Stallion Stakes.
Wakizashi Hanover, State Treasurer, L A Delight, Control The Moment, and Freaky Feet Pete rounded out the Top 10. Wakizashi Hanover won a division of the Keystone Classic last week while L A Delight stretched her win streak to 11 races by capturing the Ontario Sire Stakes Super Final for 2-year-old female pacers with a stakes-record-equaling effort.
Rankings based on the votes of harness racing media representatives on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis.
