TwinSpires Players Horse Of The Year & Top Winners For Harness Bettors, 2015

As 2015 ends, we file our annual report to harness blog followers/TwinSpires account holders.

First, we announce our 2015 TwinSpires Players Horse of the Year. At the end of each season, we celebrate the horse endorsed in a blog that won and paid a winning mutual larger than any other we suggested you play during a season.

Over the past few seasons, the TwinSpires Players Horse of the Year has paid at least $100. In 2015 we scored with the highest win mutual since we began crowning our champion. The horse came from our H2W (horses-to-watch) list. The winner is:

The Filly Princess, $186.50
bay mare, 7
(Bettor’s Delight—Knock Yourself Out—Artiscape)
Breeder:.Francine Funke, CT
Owner: Standardbred Ventures, Inc., Merrick, N.Y

Early in 2015, The Filly Princess won a conditioned event at Saratoga Harness, paying $186.50. On the H2W list, that win price was three times the penultimate price of $56.

Honorable Mention goes to the top price from our features. It was another filly, The Show Returns, paying $82.80 at the Meadowlands during the stakes season.
