No changes in this week’s poll
Hightstown, NJ — With limited stakes action last week and no activity among the horses in last week’s Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll, there was no change in this week’s top 10.
The top five was led, as it has been all 24 weeks of the rankings, by Shartin N. She was followed by Greenshoe, Bettor’s Wish, Warrawee Ubeaut, and Manchego. The second five remained Real Cool Sam, Gimpanzee, Tall Dark Stranger, Lather Up, and McWicked.
The Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll, which runs weekly through November, does not determine Horse of the Year. The members of the U.S. Harness Writers Association vote on all Dan Patch Award 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.
