Winndevie ready to defend New York crown
If not for the whirlwind known as Woodside Charm and a world-record-shattering mile, filly trotter Winndevie could have completed her 2-year-old season with an undefeated record. But there was no shame in finishing with a 6-for-7 slate, capped by a victory in the New York Sire Stakes championship. On Tuesday (May 7), the filly returns to the site of last year’s final triumph — Yonkers Raceway — to begin her defense of the title as the 2-1 morning-line favorite in the third of three NYSS divisions for 3-year-old female trotters. The race, with a purse of $54,833, will be Winndevie’s seasonal debut for trainer-driver Trond Smedshammer and owner Purple Haze Stables.
