Breeders' Cup options for Limato Henry Candy will assess Breeders' Cup options for Limato after he stormed clear in the hands of Harry Bentley to claim the Qatar Prix de la Foret at Chantilly. Runner-up in the seven-furlong Group One 12 months ago, Candy's stable star has run over a variety of distances this season. After finishing fourth at a mile in the Lockinge at Newbury, the four-year-old dropped to six furlongs to run out a brilliant winner of Newmarket's July Cup before finding Mecca's Angel too strong over the minimum distance in the Nunthorpe at York. He was a warm order to gain his second top-level success in the final race on Arc day and after travelling well throughout, the 8-11 favourite showed off his devastating turn of foot to secure an emphatic victory. Front-running 40-1 shot Karar boxed on to finish second, with David O'Meara's Suedois running his usual sold race in third. Candy said: "The race worked out really, really well. The horse was really relaxed and Harry was able to take a pull. It was lovely to see the way he quickened up like that." Assessing plans, Candy added: "It (Breeders' Cup) is a definite possibility. We'll have to discuss it, but I'd rather run him in the Mile than the Sprint." Winning owner Paul Jacobs cautioned: "I'm not sure about the Mile, we'll have to see. The Mile is a lot more valuable, but it's a lot more competitive." Bentley said: "He's got an incredible turn of foot, but he does settle in his races, too. He really is a class act."
