Yannick Gingras heads to Monday’s MGM Borgata Pacing Series with no morning-line favorites, but each of his four Ron Burke-trained horses is no worse than third choice in the event’s second of five preliminary rounds at MGM Yonkers Raceway. Among that group is Hellabalou, who brings a five-race win streak to the third of the night’s four $50,000 divisions.
Hellabalou, the 2021 Adios champ, won his first-round Borgata start by a neck over Jimmy Freight and Backstreet Shadow in 1:52.1 last week. Starting from post one, Hellabalou took the lead at the start and never relinquished the top position.
