Beyond Mybudget gets setup

ETOBICOKE, Ontario – With no stakes on Saturday at Woodbine, a host of competitive allowances will fill the void on a terrific 11-race card that begins at 1:10 p.m.

There’s no shortage of speed in the featured second-level allowance sprint for fillies and mares, which could set up for Beyond Mybudget. She won her third crack at the first allowance condition two starts back going the six-furlong distance of Saturday’s race.

Following a 2 1/2-month break, Beyond Mybudget was favored in a second-level allowance on Oct. 21. After awaiting room on the turn, she closed outside on her left lead for second while earning a career-high 81 Beyer Speed Figure.

Emma-Jayne Wilson retains the mount on Beyond Mybudget, a Mark Casse-trained daughter of elite sire Munnings owned by Conrad Farms.

Owen’s Tour Guide won the first two starts of her career from a stalking position. She ended a three-race slide most recently when capturing a first-level allowance with an 83 Beyer, three weeks after ending up fourth after blowing a substantial lead in the restricted Algoma Stakes.

“She ran a big race last time,” said trainer Willy Armata, who will give Ademar Santos a leg up on the 3-year-old.

Rosebud’s Hope competes with a $62,500 claiming tag off a third behind Beyond Mybudget in her last outing. She won a one-mile inner-turf race at this level in her second start off the sidelines July 31.

The three need-the-lead types are Sister Peacock, Spanish Ballerina, and Sparkle Sammy.

Stakes winner Sister Peacock just missed after disposing of the other speed in a five-furlong dash that was taken off the turf Oct. 9, from which victorious La Libertee exited to run third in the Grade 3 Hendrie.

Spanish Ballerina was stakesplaced twice in restricted company at this meet. She wasn’t all that far behind Sister Peacock in fifth after dueling up front with her in that Oct. 9 event.

Longshot Sparkle Sammy is moving up off back-to-back topthree placings against $32,000 claimers.

Rounding out the seventhrace field are Oceans of Love, Millennium Force, Red Equinox, Fact Checking, and the fast-working comebacker Avie’s Samurai.

◗ A first-level allowance route drew a field of 10, including the Casse-trained 4-year-olds Win d’Oro and Milano. Win d’Oro rallied for fourth among two next-out allowance winners after a four-wide journey in a 1 1/8-mile allowance on Oct. 8. Milano beat two future winners when winning a maiden race at first asking going 1 1/16 miles on Oct. 3.

◗ Be Like Clint could go favored in an allowance route for 2-year-olds that lured four fillies, two colts, and a gelding. Trained by Kevin Attard, Be Like Clint prevailed third time out when favored in a mile and 70-yard maiden special on Sept. 26.
