Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 20, 2019 Journalists Share Posted May 20, 2019 Dual G1 Dubai World Cup winner Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}) could be back in action next month with trainer Saeed Bin Suroor planning a trip to Belmont with the globetrotting 5-year-old. Bin Suroor has an eye on the GI Metropolitan H. over a mile on Belmont Stakes day for Thunder Snow who was last seen edging out Gronkowski (Lonhro {Aus}) by a nose at Meydan in March. “Thunder Snow is doing good and worked nicely on Thursday,” his trainer reported. “I don’t think he will be going to Ascot – America is more likely. He needs to do another two pieces of work before we make a decision. There is a Grade I at Belmont Park over a mile for him on June 8. I’ve talked to both Christophe Soumillon and Kieren Fallon, who rides him every morning, and we think maybe a mile is better to start him back over,” he added. Dream Castle (GB) (Frankel {GB}) didn’t fare quite as well as Thunder Snow on World Cup night but the G1 Jebel Hatta winner had an excuse for his down the field finish in the G1 Dubai Turf and Bin Suroor is hoping to see him back on track as soon as this coming weekend. “He is doing well and we are looking for a Group 1 for him. He had a foot problem in Dubai, that is what I found after the race. He didn’t change his lead in the race, but he is fine now. We could take him to France this weekend [for the G1 Prix d’Ispahan],” he said.
