Despite loss, Sebastian K is still on top of Poll
September 23, 2014,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Sebastian K remained No. 1 following his seventh-place finish in the Centaur Trotting Classic, but the 8-year-old trotter lost eight first-place votes to the competition in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.
Sweet Lou, Father Patrick and Artspeak all received at least one first-place vote. All three were idle last week.
Winners last week in the Top 10 were JK She’salady in a division of the Kentuckiana Stallion Management Stakes for 2-year-old filly pacers and Lifetime Pursuit in the Buckette for 3-year-old filly trotters.
Shake It Cerry, who was idle, moved into the No. 10 spot as Sandbetweenurtoes dropped out.
