Hightstown, NJ — Only one horse in the Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll Top 10 was in action last week, resulting in little movement in the Week 19 edition of the rankings released Tuesday.

Confederate remained the unanimous No. 1, holding down the top spot for the ninth consecutive week. He was followed by Sylvia Hanover and T C I, also unchanged from a week ago. In the next two spots, pacer Tattoo Artist, who won the Woodbine Mohawk Park FFA, swapped places with Tactical Approach.

There was no movement in the remaining five positions, occupied by Geocentric, It’s My Show, Grace Hill, Bythemissal, and Alrajah One IT.
