Top Standardbred Sires of 2010

There are still some races to come, yet it looks like the field is narrowing significantly. Here are the contenders for Harness Horse Info 2010 Stallion of the Year honours:

Pacing

Rocknroll Hanover
Western Hanover
Bettors Delight
Art Major
Dragon Again
Western Ideal


Trotting

Credit Winner
Muscles Yankee
Angus Hall
Yankee Glide
Conway Hall
Cantab Hall
Andover Hall
Windsongs Legacy


As Credit Winner is on top for two and three year olds and overall, it will be difficult knock him off his perch. Muscles Yankee is right there with him, while Conway Hall, Yankee Glide, Andover Hall and Cantab Hall each had spectacular seasons.

On the pacing side the remaining races may actually make a difference, as a case can be made for each of Western Hanover, Bettors Delight, and Rocknroll Hanover. Art Major may not take the top prize in 2010, yet his two and three year olds are ultra-competitive, positioning him well for next year's big money races.
