September 9, 2014,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Lifetime Pursuit won the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes championship for 3-year-old female trotters, her fifth victory in a row, and moved into the Top 10 in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.
The filly is the only newcomer in the rankings.
Sebastian K, who was idle last week, remained unanimously No. 1 and none of the horses in the top six changed positions.
Also winning PaSS championships were No. 4 Father Patrick, for 3-year-old male trotters, and No. 6 McWicked, for 3-year-old male pacers.
Sandbetweenurtoes lost in the PaSS final for 3-year-old female pacers, her first defeat of the season, and dropped from seventh to ninth in the poll.
Three-year-old male pacer JK Endofanera dropped from the Top 10.
