Axevalla Race 8 - Race 8
JUAN LES PINS (9) resumes after a decisive Halmstad win over 2140m by 26.24m and looks the one to beat second up. MECHIZEDEC (7) brings winning 2140m form at Färjestad and was respected at Åby next time, so rates the danger. BELUGA MARSHALL (5) was 3rd of 6 over 2140m at Momarken last time and can fill a placing. FEAR THE DRAGON (1) improved to 4th at Axevalla over 2140m two back and draws well to be in the mix.

Third-up and draws the pole after a big barrier swing from 12 to 1. Last start at Axevalla over 2140m he finished 4th of 12, beaten 38.55m on an EASY track at $51 behind Monero L.l. With the inside draw and recent experience at the trip, he can hold a handy spot and improve.

Returns to barrier 2 after drawing 6 last time, which should aid his positioning. Debuted at Axevalla over 2140m 17 days ago in a maxEarnings=12000 race, starting 91 and finishing unplaced behind Monero L.l. A softer draw and quick backup give him a chance to improve on that first outing.

Second-up after a 48-day break, he did well fresh at Kalmar over 2140m when 4th of 13, beaten 52.46m at $3.60 from this gate. Has yet to place in three attempts at the trip and his Axevalla start was inconclusive, but sticking to 2140m with Persson back aboard gives him a base to build on.

Second-up after an 18-day break and draws better with a barrier shift from 7 to 4. Debuted at Halmstad over 2140m in a maxEarnings=20000.000000, starting $4.20 and finishing 7th of 7, beaten 52.43m by Pandora River on an EASY track. Needs to improve off that run but the draw helps her chance to settle.

Second-up after a 78-day break and resumes from barrier 5, with Magnus Jakobsson sticking. Placed 3rd at Momarken over 2140m last start behind Logical Exit and Tayno Arctous, matching his 2140m record (2:0-0-1). Competitive on this trip and can build on that return.

Third-up and returns to Axevalla 2140m where he was 6th of 12 last time, beaten 76.94m at $91 in a maxEarnings=12000. Oskar Andersson stays on, and he’s yet to place in four tries at the trip or two at the track. Needs a clear step forward to feature.

Draws the pole and is second up after scoring on debut over 2140m at Farjestad, beating Calico Jack. Last start at Aby he was a 3.75 chance in a maxEarnings=45000 field but didn’t figure behind Omark. Barrier 1 gives him the setup to bounce back at this trip.

Yet to place this season (5:0-0-0) and unplaced in four tries at 2140m, but draws better moving from barrier 7 to 2. Last start at Färjestad he finished 7th of 8, 90.81m from Nelson Jaam, and prior run was 5th of 10 at Årjäng at $19. Solid gate could help him settle handier, though he needs to lift on recent margins.

Returned from a spell with a dominant 26.24m win at Halmstad over 2140m on 17 Aug (SP 2.4) in maxEarnings=10000, beating Capacity. Steps out second up with a favourable barrier shift from 7 to 3 and remains unbeaten at this trip (1:1-0-0). Well placed to continue the progress.
