Wiggle It Jiggleit remains unanimous No. 1 in Poll
June 14, 2016,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Wiggle It Jiggleit won for the third consecutive time last week and remains the unanimous No. 1 in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll. The 4-year-old male pacer won the third leg of the Graduate Series by 5-1/2 lengths in a track-record-equaling 1:48.1 at Tioga Downs on Sunday.
Maestro Blue Chip won the Graduate leg for 4-year-old trotters and moves from No. 9 to seventh in the poll.
The lone newcomer to the Top 10 is Betting Line, a 3-year-old male pacer who won his elimination for the North America Cup last weekend at Mohawk.
The Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll does not determine Horse of the Year. The U.S. Harness Writers Association votes in December on all division winners plus Trotter of the Year, Pacer of the Year and Horse of the Year.
Rankings based on the votes of harness racing media representatives on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis.
