Santa Anita the target for Candy and July Cup hero Limato

Henry Candy has never had runner at the Breeders’ Cup but that could all change on November 5 after he pointed his July Cup winner Limato towards Santa Anita.

Limato will get entries in both the Turf Sprint over six and a half furlongs and the Mile for what could be his next run if the ground is too soft for Group 1 engagements at Deauville and Haydock.

Candy, who met owner Paul Jacobs yesterday to discuss plans, said about the four-year-old: “We’ll look at the Maurice de Gheest at Deauville and the Haydock Sprint, but if it came up soft there does not look a lot else for him before the Breeders’ Cup.
