Hot Flash Kimmy captures second straight in Meadows feature

WASHINGTON, PA, Dec. 13, 2023  — Hot Flash Kimmy (Lookslikeachpndale-Hortop Temper) thwarted the challenge of stakes veteran Rose Run Yanae and captured Wednesday’s (Dec. 13) harness racing feature — her second straight win — at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $12,500 Conditioned Trot.

Hot Flash Kimmy emerged from an early scrum with a hotly contested lead but soon faced a threat from the first-up Rose Run Yanae, who in September won the Ohio Breeders Championship and finished second in the Ohio Sires Stake final. But Hot Flash Kimmy responded to the urging of Ronnie Wrenn, Jr. and turned back the challenger by 3 lengths in a career-best 1:54.4. Easy Rider rallied for show.
