turning for home and sailed clear to a four-length vic- tory in Sunday=s GI La Brea S. at Santa Anita. The three-year-old filly covered the seven furlongs in a spar- kling 1:20.33 over a new dirt track that was produc- ing fast times all day. Switch raced just off the TWIRLING CANDY MAKES IT A SADLER SWEEP early pacesetters, while Twirling Candy ( {Arg}) outgamed Smiling skimming the rail.

Smiling Tiger took over in upper stretch, but Twirling Candy loomed a threat to his outside, and the pair battled down to the line with Twirling Candy just getting the better of that foe in the final jump. Sadler missed his big day with an injured knee, but assistant trainer Larry Benavidez cred- ited his boss with strategic pre-race works for his three stakes winners. AJohn made a million-dollar move on Thursday by sending the three horses to Hollywood Park to breeze them,@ Benavidez said. AThat might have helped in the cause. But we have three Grade I horses, so we were pretty confident going into today.@ The lightly raced Twirling Candy, a J “TDN Rising Star” J, opened his career with four straight victories, culmi- nating with a 3 1/4-length tally in the Sept. 5 GII Del Mar Derby. He suffered the first loss of his career last time out when tiring to fourth in the Oct. 2 GI Good- wood S. at Hollywood.

The chestnut had been on real dirt just once before, but that was over a sloppy strip in the May 1 GI Kentucky Derby, where he faded badly to finish 17th. Freshened after that effort, he was second by a head after setting the pace in the GII Swaps S. July 17, then made his turf bow in the La Jolla and cruised by 5 1/2 lengths. The sophomore was not disgraced when sixth, just three lengths adrift of the great Goldikova (Fr) (Anabaa), after setting the pace in the Nov. 6 GI Breeders= Cup Mile, and he was the heavy chalk to take a liking to the new Santa Anita strip. Sidney=s Candy broke sharply and had company through a half in :45.03, but he opened up in the final four furlongs to win as much the best. AHe=s a really good horse and he likes to run free and easy,@ explained winning rider Joel Rosario. AEven though he went fast fractions, he just kept going. When we went to the first turn, I could hear [track announcer] Trevor [Denman] say we made an easy lead. The fractions were fast and he maybe got a little bit tired at the end.
