Meisel wins the 2015 World Harness Handicapping Championship

The 2015 World Harness Handicapping Championship was conducted on Saturday night at The Meadowlands and the winner, taking home the $14,400 first place prize was William Meisel of Staten Island, N.Y.

Meisel, a court officer by day, is a frequent Meadowlands contest player.  Tonight, he cashed on 8 out of 10 contest wagers and was in second place going into the 13th and final contest race.

William catapulted to the win with a $100 last race win wager on the winner, Rockaholic, sending his bankroll to $1,092 to capture the prize. 

Official standings will be posted Tuesday.
