Amal Race 5 - Race 5
Light on exposed form. ATLANTIC CROWN (6) appeals after a 5th of 9 at Örebro over 2100m (13.21m) 17 days ago and now draws 6. Fresh EMPOLI BROLINE (1) resumes off 192 days and gets barrier 1 after an 8th of 9 at Halmstad over 2140m (50.96m). ISOLDE BRYNE (4) is second up and was 6th of 9 at Färjestad over 2140m (52.45m) 20 days ago. SWEET YOU (8) resumes after 146 days and last raced at Färjestad over 2140m in April.

First run for the prep after 192 days off and draws the pole, with Ole Johan Östre taking over. Latest start was 8th of 9 at Halmstad over 2140m from barrier 8, beaten 50.96m behind Flask Bettan. Needs to lift on exposed form but the draw gives him every chance to settle handy.

Draws barrier 2 and teams with Torbjörn Jansson for Kjell Magnusson, a handy setup for a 3YO gelding by Classic Photo. First public run not detailed, but the draw should allow a soft early position. Keep safe with the favourable gate and experienced driver.

Well-bred by Propulsion out of Yursa Hanover, and draws barrier 3 which can aid positioning. Emilia Lohman takes the drive for trainer Mathilda Lohman. Market and parade may guide, but the setup looks workable.

Second-up after a 20-day break, she finished 6th of 9 at Farjestad over 2140m from gate 9, beaten 52.45m by Kareem Zet at $91. Draws better here with barrier 4 and drops slightly in trip (−60m), which could help her settle closer. Needs to lift on exposed form but the softer setup offers scope to improve.

Lightly raced 3YO by Don Fanucci Zet from Bright Night, trained and driven by Björn Steinseth from gate 5. Breeding suggests speed and professionalism; with the driver-trainer combination unchanged, she looks a tidy prospect. Keeps improving profile and can give a forward showing.

Second-up after a 5th of 9 at Orebro over 2100m 17 days ago, beaten 13.21m behind Global Honey Trap at $31. Debut run at the same track saw him out of the finish in a maxEarnings=40000.000000 field over 2140m. Small distance trim and a new driver today; scope to improve with racing but needs to lift.
Driver: Carl Johan Jepson

Lightly raced 4YO gelding by Fabulous Wood for the Christoffer Eriksson stable, drawn barrier 7 with Carl Johan Jepson to drive. Lacks exposed recent form in the supplied data, so the set-up and driver engagement are the key positives; keep safe.
Driver: Petter Karlsson

Resumes after 146 days and is first-up with Petter Karlsson taking over the drive. His three runs this season were unplaced at 2140m at Farjestad and Axevalla in maxEarnings=30000.000000 company. Barrier 8 and a slight distance trim suggest a conservative map; needs to lift on exposed form.
Driver: Mikael J Andersson

Lightly raced this season (2 starts) and resumes 27 days after contesting a Farjestad 2140m maxEarnings=25000 on 24 Aug at $91 from gate 1. Draws wider with barrier 9 today after barrier 11 two back, so the setup is tougher, but the recent outings should aid fitness. Needs improvement to feature off that form.
