The longstanding Williston Park diner, owned by the Sarfs horse racing family, sponsored jockey Junior Alvarado on Sovereignty and jockey Umberto Rispoli on Journalism. Between the two, they brought home the gold from the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes, winning Hildenbrandt’s what some call a triple crown by extension.

Hildebrandt's of Williston Park sponsored the winning rider in each Triple Crown race, including Garden City's Junior Alvarado atop Sovereignty in Saratoga Springs on Saturday.

After the Derby win, the Godolphin-owned 3-year-old opted out of the Preakness to focus on the Belmont, forfeiting a shot at history to win the Triple Crown. The Triple Crown hasn't been won since 2018, when Bob Baffert's Justify won the 105th Belmont Stakes to secure the third jewel.
