Freehold, NJ — For the first time this year, Sebastian K is not on top of the Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.

Father Patrick, who did not race last week, moved up to No. 1 following Sebastian K’s loss in the International Trot Preview Invitational at Yonkers Raceway. Sebastian K, who went off stride and finished eighth, held the top position for 23 weeks.

The biggest upward moves, though, belonged to JK She’salady, who remained undefeated with a win in the Three Diamonds Stakes at Woodbine, and Nuncio, who won the Yonkers Trot at Yonkers.

JK She’salady added four first-place votes, giving her a poll-best 12, and closed within 12 points of the No. 1 spot. Nuncio received two first-place votes and vaulted over Shake It Cerry and Sweet Lou to land in fourth place in the weekly rankings.

Other winners in the poll were Artspeak, who captured the Governor’s Cup at Woodbine, and JK Endofanera, who won a division of the Circle City at Hoosier Park.

Mission Brief went off stride in the Goldsmith Maid at Woodbine and finished ninth.

There were no newcomers to the Top 10.
