by Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications

Freehold, NJ — Wiggle It Jiggleit added six first-place votes to his total from a week ago, now at 28, in this week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll.

The 4-year-old male pacer, who won last week’s Dayton Pacing Derby by a head over Always B Miki, continues to occupy the No. 1 spot in the rankings, increasing his advantage over No. 2 Hannelore Hanover to 65 points.

Positions 2 through 4, where Hannelore Hanover, Betting Line, and Always B Miki reside, are separated by a total of 20 points. Marion Marauder is fifth, 46 points behind fourth-place Always B Miki.

There are no newcomers in this week’s rankings.

The Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll does not determine Horse of the Year. The U.S. Harness Writers Association votes in December on all division winners plus Trotter of the Year, Pacer of the Year and Horse of the Year.

Rankings based on the votes of harness racing media representatives on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis.
