With one third of the 2010 harness racing campaign complete, a few new faces have emerged atop of the trainers and drivers standings in Canada
.
Driver Simon Allard, who will celebrate his 28th birthday on May 6, recently took back the top spot in the win category. He has reined home 174 winners giving him a two point lead on Canada’s 2009 National Driving Champion, Brad Forward. Woodbine Entertainment's top ranking reinsman Randy Waples is the nation’s leader for earnings having banked over $2.26 million so far this season.
Fraser Downs’ leading horseman Ed Hensley takes top honours in three categories - training wins (77), trainer UTR (.492) and driver UDR (.467). WEG’s leading trainer Ben Baillargeon has banked nearly $900,000 in purses making him the nation’s top money-earning conditioner.
The top ten in each category are available on the Seasons Leaders page.
