Jquery open href if src=

I am trying to use Jquery to search a table of images for any that match the defined parameters within the src, and if found to then open the href in a new window. The href comes before the img src in the website code, which I believe I've compensated for in my Jquery.

Unfortunately I'm unsure why the Jquery is not working - could anybody take a look at it and give me a nudge in the right direction? I suspect the problem is in opening the specified href, but for the life of me I can't spot the problem. Thanks in advance.

$('img[src$=random.gif]').each(function() {
      $img = $(this);
      $link = $url.closest('a');
      var href = $link.attr('href');
        var win = window.open.attr('href', '_blank');
        win.focus();
      });
    setTimeout(function () { window.location.href = window.location.href }, 500);
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<td>
<a href="/link">
<img src="/random.gif">
</a>
</td>

If $img is the $(this) image than instead of $url.closest('a'); you should point to $img

  $img = $(this);
  $link = $img.closest('a');

Edited example: https://jsfiddle.net/4ua4p5pf/

$('img[src$="random.gif"]').each(function() {

    var $img = $(this);
    var href = $img.closest('a').attr('href');

    setTimeout(function () {
       var win = window.open( href, "Image description", "status,resizable,scrollbars");
       // var win = window.open( href, "image"); // open in new tab
       win.focus();
    }, 500);

});
