Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 17, 2020 Journalists Share Posted June 17, 2020 Reddam Racing’s Fore Left (Twirling Candy), winner of the G2 UAE 2000 Guineas at Meydan in February, has been added to the field for Saturday’s GI Belmont S. The colt had been expected to go postward in Saturday’s seven-furlong GI Woody Stephens S. “Fore Left has settled in and is training really well over the Belmont surface,” said trainer Doug O’Neill, confirming the story first reported by Daily Racing Form‘s Dave Grenig. “He’s coming off a really strong performance in Dubai and we really like the one-turn 1 1/8-miles layout and the lack of a lot of speed projected in there.” Fore Left, third in last year’s GII Best Pal S., has not started since the Feb. 6 UAE Guineas. He has worked twice at Belmont Park this month, going five furlongs in :59.05 (1/19) June 4 and six furlongs in 1:12.52 (2/2) June 13. “If we’re ever going to take a shot with him, he’s telling us that now is the time,” O’Neill said. “I’m optimistic he’ll put in a solid effort under Jose Ortiz.” The post Fore Left Joins Belmont Field appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
