Amal Race 3 - Race 3
KEN'S QUEEN (1) maps well to 2080m at Amal with a perfect 2/2 distance and track-distance record, and arrives off a last-start Amal win over 2080m. STEPPING GOGO GIRL (9) brings sharp recent form after a narrow Axevalla win on 2140m 9 days ago and owns 1 win, 1 second from three runs at 2080m here. KENCIO JAAM (6) is a previous Amal 2080m winner and was a close 2nd over 2880m here in August before a solid 4th last week. ARCANIA S. (3) is progressive this season (3 wins) and was a close 3rd at Axevalla two starts back before a midfield 5th over 1609m, now stretching 471m in trip.

Perfectly drawn and unbeaten at 2080m and at this track (2:2-0-0), she arrives third-up off a last-start Amal win over 2080m, beating Lady Vici at $3.75. CurrentTrack record is strong (3:2-1-0), and the inside alley should aid a forward showing. Well placed to run another bold race.

Returns first up with a handy barrier profile (8:2-0-2 from gates 1–3) and draws 2 here. Latest campaign included a 13.42m win at Farjestad over 2140m in maxEarnings=650000, then three unplaced runs up in grade. With the gate aiding position, a competitive showing is within reach.

Solid season so far (10:3-1-1) and draws better to barrier 3, with a positive barrier record (2:1-0-1). Close-up 5th at Tingsryd over 1609m seven days ago at $4.75, beaten just 0.07m by Kaboom D.k., after a narrow 3rd at Axevalla on 2 Sep at $4.33. Recent wins at Kalmar on 25 Jul, including a 1640m success over Wheeljack P. W. R, underline current form and make him a live chance.

Best recent effort was 3rd at Arjang over 2140m on 7 Aug, beaten 13.14m at $22 with Paw Mahony driving. Since then has finished 6th at Farjestad and Amal, beaten 27.05m and 26.56m at $51 and $61. Back to 2080m where his record is (2:0-1-0), and the return to Mahony is a plus; place hopes with a smooth trip.

Consistent of late with back-to-back 3rds, most recently at Eskilstuna over 2140m from barrier 6, beaten 13.56m at $4.75 behind Hallabaloo. Earlier boxed on for 3rd at Örebro (2100m, EASY) from barrier 12 at $18 behind Kentucky Shadow. Returns to Rebecca Dahlén from a handy draw and can hold a spot to be competitive again.

Proven at this track and trip with a 2080m Amal win on 28 Jun, sent out 1.73 and scoring over Ramiro Bo. Since then he’s run 2nd at Amal over 2880m by 0.04m at 16s and was 4th here over 2480m last week, beaten 13.26m by Checkpoint Charlie. Back to 2080m suits given his unbeaten 1:1 record at the track-distance, so he looks a genuine hope.

Steps up 440m from a 1640m Mantorp run 13 days ago where he didn’t figure after drawing better. Prior efforts include 7th at Eskilstuna over 2140m, beaten 51.24m at 34. Track/driver combo has yet to place from 23 tries, so he needs to lift.

Solid wider-gate stats (11:1-2-1) and returns after 26 days with Magnus Jakobsson taking over. Latest completed run was 5th at Lindesberg over 2140m, beaten 27.13m at $3.4 in a maxEarnings=800000, and now cuts back 440m which could suit. Mixed recent results but the setup hints at a more economical trip if he lands handy.

Comes off a last-start Axevalla win over 2140m on 11 Sep, narrowly scoring over Lauser. Track-distance stats read well (Amal 2080: 3:1-1-0) and she’s 2:1-1 at the 2080 trip overall. With solid this season figures (14:2-3-0), she profiles as a competitive chance from the back row.

Placed 3rd here over 2080m two starts back in maxEarnings=270000, beaten 13.18m at $23 after drawing 7. Has solid course-and-trip stats (13:2-3-1) and is back at Amal seven days after a non-result from the pole in a higher maxEarnings=500000. Genuine place chance if reproducing the late-August effort.

Second-up with a recent Arjang run just two days ago and a 440m rise to 2080m, a trip where he owns a track/distance placing at Amal. His best recent figure was 4th at Farjestad over 2140m, and he did snag a placing at this trip and venue previously. Veteran who can grind away and is capable of sneaking into the finish with the step to his preferred journey.

Close third at Amal over 2080m two back, beaten just 0.05m at $3.25 behind Ken's Queen, showing he handles this trip and venue. Last week he drew wider and finished 5th of 11 at the same track and distance, 13.62m from Sherburne S. Overall track/distance returns are modest, but his recent Amal form keeps him in the mix.
