Things are getting interesting once again in the Hambletonian/Breeders Crown Standardbred Poll, as a pair of multi-talented trotters are battling tooth-and-nail for the top spot in the poll

.

Muscle Hill continues to lead the way in the poll thanks in part to 18 first-place votes which helped him build up 332 points. Hot on his heels, however, is last weekend’s Breeders Crown winner, Lucky Jim. The Julie Miller student garnered 16 of the first-place votes, which helped him check in with 327 points in the poll.

The only other horse to earn a first-place vote was the Pepsi North America Cup and Meadowlands Pace winner, Well Said. The Steve Elliott trainee checks in with 285 points.
