Hello Hot Rod (inside) holds off Return the Ring to win the Jimmy Winkfield by a head
Hello Hot Rod dug in gamely to best Return the Ring by a head in Sunday's 37th renewal of the $100,000 Jimmy Winkfield, a seven-furlong sprint for sophomores at Aqueduct Racetrack in Ozone Park, N.Y.
Trained and co-owned by Brittany Russell with Dark Horse Racing, the Mosler colt made a victorious stakes debut while running his win streak to three following a pair of scores at his Laurel Park base, including a last-out optional-claiming mile on December 13.
