Boden Race 4 - Race 4
EXPLOSIVE STAR (3) appeals most off sharp recent figures, holding 2nd here over 2140m then a narrow 2nd in 1,640m last start and consistently placing at Boden. KARBON BRICK (7) is a solid threat with two recent placings and a 2nd here over 2140m, proven from wider draws. BACKWOOD GILDA (6) has upside after a last-start win over 1,640m and owns a 2140m track record that reads well enough to feature again. LANGSTRUMPAN (12) warrants respect despite the draw, a recent 2140m win followed by a close-up 6th here, so a knockout chance if she lands handy.

Fourth up and sticks to 2140m at Boden after a luckless 6th of 12 here on 27 Oct, beaten just 0.1m at $5.50. Driver switches to Jenny Engfors. That narrow margin reads well for this grade and setup.
Driver: Ville Pohjola

First up after 13 weeks, and stays at 2140m at Boden where both runs last prep came. Draws on the pace map with Ville Pohjola taking over from Jani Lamminparras. With that freshen and the driver change, Love Vacation gets a straightforward set-up to show more at this trip.

Placed in 4 of last 5 and comes off a narrow 2nd at Boden over 1640m on 5 Nov, beaten 0.01m at $51.00. Earlier ran 3rd here at 2140m on 27 Oct, just 0.04m away at $61.00. Consistent and proven at the trip around this track, giving a solid each-way look without needing the market’s respect.

Driver change to Mika Forss could help after finishing 8th of 12 at Umaker over 2140m on 8 Nov, beaten 53.4m at $23.00. Stays at the same trip and draws a fresh set of hands to find improvement. Crazy Janey has the set-up to be more competitive with a cleaner run.

Second up with a driver change to Tatu Ek. Last start at Skelleftea over 2140m she finished 8th of 11, beaten 39.69m at $29.00. Returns to Boden at the same trip, where she has raced before, and can be expected to strip fitter for this assignment.
Driver: Ulf Ohlsson

Back from a sharp Boden 1640m win on 5 Nov at $29.00, and now stretches to 2140m at the same track. Driver switches to Ulf Ohlsson, which could help manage the step back up in trip. Backwood Gilda has already seen this distance at Boden on 27 Oct, so the set-up is familiar. Solid claims to hold form with the top reinsman aboard.
Driver: Ove A Lindqvist

Placed in 3 of last 5 and returns to the 2140m at Boden where he was 2nd of 12 on 27 Oct, beaten 13.37m at $6.00. This season reads (10:2-3-1) and he has handled wide draws before with a (3:1-1-0) record from barriers 7–9. With Ove A Lindqvist up again, consistent recent efforts at the trip give him a genuine chance to figure.
Driver: Frida Simonsson

Back to 2140m at Boden where she was 5th of 14 on 5 Nov, beaten 26.56m at $12.00. That followed a 2140m run here on 9 Sep when sent out $51.00. Stays with Frida Simonsson driving and training, and gets a similar setup again. Capable of holding a spot in midfield with a clean getaway.

First up after 28 weeks and switches to driver Leif Eriksson. Last seen at Boden over 1640m on 30 Apr, finishing 6th of 12 and beaten 27.63m. Returns to 2140m at the same venue, a trip he has tackled previously. Needs to improve on that latest effort but the freshen and driver change offer a different setup.
Driver: John Östman

Back to 2140m at Boden where he was 6th of 11 on 13 Sep, beaten 26.34m at $26.00. Latest run was 5th of 11 at Skelleftea over 2140m on 18 Oct, beaten 26.43m at $16.00. John Östman takes over the drive from Ulf Ohlsson. Needs to lift on those efforts but the driver change and return to this track offer some hope for improvement.
Driver: Petter Lundberg

Back to the same 2140m at Boden where he was 5th of 12 on 27 Oct, beaten 13.2m at $11.00. Prior run here was a strong 2nd of 13 on 15 Oct over this trip at $34.00, beaten 13.17m. Petter Lundberg drives and trains. Consistent at this track and distance and can give a sight again.
Driver: Sandra Eriksson

Back at 2140m at Boden, where she was 6th of 12 on 27 Oct when beaten 13.21m at $3.50. Has race-fit local form with another 2140m run here on 3 Oct. Sandra Eriksson retains the drive, and the set-up is familiar. Competitive on her recent figures and holds a place chance.
