Woodbine Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CRYSTAL PEARL (3) showed little early speed last start then lengthened in good style in the straight to finish third at this track over today's journey. Expected to prove tough to hold out again. HELLO STRANGER (2) broke his maiden last start over 1408m at Woodbine when resuming, scoring by a nose. Christoff Douglas was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the ride. Sure to prove tough to beat again with that win now under his belt. GUERRA (4) is back at the races for the first time since July 31. Scored over 1308m at this track to launch the last campaign. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. COPA DE PLATA (5) turned in a modest performance when seventh last time out over 1408m at Woodbine, beaten 6 lengths, after a win at Woodbine at the previous outing. Expect a better run this time.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at this track on October 15 over 1710m, 4 len behind Ideologist carrying 56kg at $2.40. The run before that won by 1.75 len at Woodbine on September 7 over 2012m defeating Beyond Adversity with 56kg at $3.10. Best form should see him measure right up.

At the latest run ran second last of 8 at Woodbine on October 18 over 1408m, 6 len behind Adir with 55.5kg at $12.40. Before that came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Woodbine on September 13 over 1609m defeating Moon Channel carrying 54.5kg at $4.45. Mediocre effort last time out but this suits.
