Woodbine Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Optional Claiming
KARAT GOLD (6) Produced an eye catching run when 2nd last run around here but coming back in distance. Possesses good finishing speed. Genuine winning chance. ILLUMINARA (1) Souper Speedy 2yo trained by Catherine Day Phillips on debut and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Watch early betting. GLINT OVER ESSA (2) Ran on strongly when 2nd last run around here and having second career run. Pietro Moran and William Tharrenos must be respected when they team up. Should get going late. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. RED DESTINY (5) First run back after a break. Did well when 2nd last start at this track. Has a nice turn of foot. Include in chances.

Started $10.00 and ran 5th last run here. Has the talent to rebound quickly but will be dropping in distance. Has plenty of early speed. Stands out as good value.

Did well to run into 2nd last run at this venue but back to a shorter trip. Can go through the gears. Strong prospects in this race.

Was $18.00 and didn't find the line when 5th last start at this track and will be facing a significant drop in distance. Displays good closing speed. Looking elsewhere today.
