The top three horses in the Hambletonian Society/Breeders Crown poll, led by Louprint, remained unchanged in the Week 7 edition of the rankings released on Wednesday, July 30, but the gap between the trio was reduced to a mere eight points.
Louprint continued to hold the No. 1 spot, as he has all season, but by only two points over Twin B Joe Fresh. Hambletonian elimination winner Emoticon Legacy remained third.
Super Chapter, another Hambletonian elim winner, moved from fifth to fourth in a swap of places with Tompkins-Geers Stakes winner Miki And Minnie. Those two horses were separated by four points.
Adios champion Prince Hal Hanover was the only newcomer to the Top 10, finishing tied for ninth with Madden Oaks.
Go Dog Go dropped out of the Top 10.
