Freehold, NJ — Always B Miki remains in the top spot in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.
The 5-year-old pacing horse has 340 points, 19 points more than runner-up Wigglie It Jiggleit. These two pacers, along with No. 4 ranked Freaky Feet Pete, will meet in this Saturday’s WR Haughton Memorial at Meadowlands Racetrack.
