Boden Race 3 - Race 3
JOBILINE RIDGE (9) appeals most on consistency and proven 2140m form, second up after a 3rd over 2640m and with wins and a 2nd at this trip at Boden through mid-year. FILLING FUEL (3) is a major threat back to 2140m, boasting strong track-and-trip stats and a recent Boden win here, though resumes after 70 days. HEINEKEN BISHOP (10) can figure late off a fresh 2nd at this track and distance and solid local record despite the back row. IL CAPITANO MEARAS (4) has claims dropping back to 2140m with a recent Dannero win, but comes off a plain run and needs to lift; narrow edge to JOBILINE RIDGE (9).

Back to Boden over the same 2140m as 27 Oct when 6th of 12, beaten 27.02m at $51.00. Jani Lamminparras stays aboard for Janita Luttunen. Needs to lift off that run but stays in a familiar set-up and can settle better with experience around here.

Held 4th of 12 over 2140m at Boden on 27 Oct, beaten 13.57m at $61.00, having also run 4th of 11 here over this trip on 16 Aug when beaten just 0.07m. Stays at the same track and distance with Paavo Koivurova driving. Honest recent efforts at this journey suggest a competitive showing is within reach.

Proven over 2140m at Boden with a strong (11:4-3-0) record at this track and trip, including a 1st of 11 here on 16 Aug by -0.01m. Steps back up from 1640m and has combined well with Roger Nilsson (11:4-3-0). Solid credentials for another competitive run.

Driver change to Taneli Säde after last start. Latest run was 7th of 15 over 2640m at Umaker on 8 Nov, beaten 39.67m at $34.00. Drops back to 2140m and can be ridden more positively with the new driver.

Driver: Ville Pohjola

First starter for Susanna Laulumaa, an 8yo gelding by Knows Nothing out of Bourbon St Hall, with Ville Pohjola to drive. Debuts over 2140m at Boden in a 12-horse field. Stable and driver combination looks a steady set-up for a learning run, and any market support would be a plus.

Driver: Jens Nilsson

Back to 2140m at Boden where he was 6th of 13 on 5 Nov, beaten 26.96m at $101.00. Stays at the trip and keeps Jens Nilsson, with a similar set-up to recent runs. Can look to hold ground again in this line-up.

Fourth up and back to 2140m after a 2640m run at Umaker on 25 Sep at $6.00. Returns to Boden, where his last go at this trip on 13 Jun saw him start $41.00. From barriers 7-9 he owns a handy (5:1-1-2). With Ove A Lindqvist up, this set-up looks suitable for a competitive showing.

First up off 1 week and reunites with Mika Forss. Last seen at Boden over 2140m on 5 Nov when sent out $51.00, so this set-up is familiar. With the driver change and a known trip, M.t.rick Nash can be kept in mind.

Driver: Petter Lundberg

Second up and drops from 2640m to 2140m, which suits given a strong 2140m record (23:6-7-1). Last start at Boden she was 3rd of 12 over 2640m, beaten 13.39m at $9.50, and earlier ran 2nd of 15 here at this trip on 14 Jul, beaten 13.81m at $5.00. With consistent recent form (placed in 4 of last 5) and Petter Lundberg taking the drive, she maps as a solid chance back to this distance.

Second up and placed in 2 of last 3. Last time at Boden over 2140m he ran 2nd of 12, beaten 13.48m at $31.00. Has a strong rapport with Sandra Eriksson (14:5-4-1). Solid claims to be in the mix again at this trip.

Close-up 2nd of 12 at Boden over 2140m on 16 Aug, beaten just 0.04m at $3.40, reads well for this trip. Followed with a 5th of 12 here over 2140m on 13 Sep, beaten 13.57m at $4.33. Driver switches to Tilde Eriksson. Consistent 2140m Boden form gives him a fair look.

Driver: Ulf Ohlsson

Proven at 2140m with a solid record (33:8-4-8). Last start at Boden over 2140m he was 6th of 12, beaten 13.8m at $11.00, but two runs back he was narrowly beaten 0.09m when 7th of 9 at $51.00. With Ulf Ohlsson aboard and proven at the trip, can be competitive if reproducing that closer effort.
