ORACLE WEST RUNS IN CANADA
By Sarah Whitelaw

Oracle West runs in Sunday's Pattison Canadian International (Gr1) at Woodbine.
The son of Western Winter faces a tough task as his opposition includes the top-class German runner Quijano, a Gp1 winner last time out, Cumberland Lodge Stakes victor Ask, champion Sky Conqueror and the classic placed three-year-old Honolulu. The race, the seventh on the card, is run over one and a half miles on the Woodbine turf surface. Oracle West is coming off a second place finish at Newbury over nine furlongs.

Interestingly enough the horse who defeated Oracle West last time out, Multidimensional, runs in Saturday's Champion Stakes at Newmarket. He is currently second favourite for the race, behind multiple Gp1 winner Notnowcato.
