Wiggle It Jiggleit returns to the top of the Poll
July 7, 2015,by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Freehold, NJ — Wiggle It Jiggleit, who won last weekend’s Hempt Memorial, moved to No. 1 in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.
There were no newcomers to the Top 10, but every horse with the exception of No. 7 Artspeak, who was second in the Hempt, changed position.
Bee A Magician, who was idle last week, dropped from first to second in the poll while JL Cruze, who defeated debuting Sebastian K by a nose with a world-record performance in the Sun Invitational, moved from fourth to third. Graduate Series champ Doo Wop Hanover jumped a spot to fourth while Wakizashi Hanover slipped to fifth.
Pinkman, who won the Beal Memorial with a world-record effort, went from No. 10 to No. 6.
Rankings based on the votes of harness racing media representatives on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis.
