Mandella’s Kanderel Heads Saturday’s $75,000 Siren Lure Stakes

At 0h01, on June 19, 2021 • By SANTA ANITA

A horse who showed ample promise early in his career, Richard Mandella’s Kanderel, on the strength of a solid recent allowance score, heads a field of seven three-year-olds and up in Saturday’s $75,000 Siren Lure Stakes at Santa Anita which will be contested at 6 ½ furlongs on turf.

A 4-year-old Candy Ride gelding that was bred in Kentucky by longtime Mandella clients Wertheimer and Frere, Kanderel rallied from far back to take a 6 ½ furlong allowance by three quarters of a length at odds of 14-1 on May 9.  With Juan Hernandez back aboard on Saturday, Kanderel would certainly be flattered by a fast early pace as he seeks back to back wins for the first time in his career.

Out of the Storm Cat mare Stormica, Kanderel is 12-3-1-0 with earnings of $147,622.
