November 24, 2015,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Wiggle It Jiggleit is No. 1 in the final Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll for 2015.
A 3-year-old male pacer, Wiggle It Jiggleit continued his winning ways by capturing Monday’s single elimination for next week’s Hap Hansen Progress Pace at Dover Downs. It was Wiggle It Jiggleit’s 21st win of the year, which is tied for the most among all horses in North America and leads all pacers.
Rounding out the top five are Freaky Feet Pete, Southwind Frank, Mission Brief and Pinkman.
Mission Brief finished her season with a 1:51.3 win over the weekend in the Continentalvictory Stakes at the Meadowlands. Wild Honey finished second.
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.
