Aby Race 5 - Race 5
GATTUSO EFFE (3) rates on top with consistent 2140m figures and a narrow 2nd last time after a dominant Jägersro win earlier in the prep. SECRET BRIGADOON (6) is a solid threat off a last-start 2140m win and a favourable draw shift, with recent 2nd at Solvalla reinforcing the form. CHARMANT DREAM (5) has the Aby record and returns to 2140m after a strong 2nd over 2640m, and he’s twice won from similar gates. RUN RHAPSODY RUN (8) also appeals with 2 from 2 at this track/trip and a nose win here two runs back; narrow edge to GATTUSO EFFE (3) in a tight finish.

Second up and back to Aby over 2140m after a 27 Oct run at Jagersro at the same trip at $91.00. She also faced this track and distance on 27 Jun at $31.00. Stays at the trip with Axel Ritzman, and the familiar circuit could suit.

Second up and placed in 2 of last 3, including a narrow 3rd of 9 at Axevalla over 2140m on 3 Nov, beaten 0.01m at $4.00. Draws within the 1-3 alley range again, where he’s 3:0-1-1. Solid recent platform and the setup suits at this trip.

Back to Aby over 2140m, the trip of her latest local run when 5th of 8 on 17 Sep, beaten 26.94m at $91.00. That effort gives a direct read on this track and distance. Driver-trainer Svend Dyhrberg sticks. Needs to lift but the familiar setup could help her hold her own.
Driver: Robert Bergh

Placed in 3 of last 5 and returns to Robert Bergh in the bike. Latest run was a solid 2nd of 9 at Aby over 2640m on 29 Oct, beaten 13.43m at $5.50. Prior Aby 2140m effort on 26 Aug reads 4th of 9, beaten 13.59m at $3.10. Consistent local form and the driver change back to Bergh give this set-up some appeal at the trip.

Comes off a 1st of 14 at Farjestad over 2140m on 26 Oct at $7.00, narrowly prevailing. Draw profile is a plus with (1-3) barriers: 3:1-1-0. With Björn Goop driving and sticking to 2140m, looks suited to give another honest showing.

Drops back from 2640m after a 7th of 11 at Axevalla on 7 Oct, beaten 53.79m at $7.50. Marc Elias sticks as trainer-driver. Needs to lift but the shorter 2140m could help steady the profile.

Switches to 2140m and gets Carl Johan Jepson after finishing 4th of 9 at Aby over 1640m on 21 Oct, beaten just 0.1m at $3.50. Has a solid record at this track and trip (6:1-2-1). That narrow last-start miss plus the driver change suggests he can be competitive again at this distance.
