Bergsaker Race 1 - Race 1
DUNDEE (2) impressed on debut at Lindesberg over 1640m, leading throughout to beat PURE ENYA (7) by 0.03m and stays at the trip second up. PURE ENYA (7) was brave chasing that winner and draws wider here. PURE CUSTOM COWBOY (8) also scored on debut at Jagersro over 1640m by 13.07m and can measure up despite the outside gate. TOUGHER THAN YOU (5) brings a solid 2nd at Solvalla over 1640m from barrier 7 and should be in the mix from a better draw.

Draws the pole for debut, with Robin Bakker booked for Paul J P Hagoort. Well-bred 2yo H by Captain Corey out of Hanna Sisu, which should suit a patient early trip from barrier 1. Profiles as a tidy first starter from a strong barn.

Debuted 8 days ago at Lindesberg over 1640 and won from the inside draw at $3.5, beating Pure Enya by a narrow margin. Unbeaten at the trip (1:1-0-0) and again partners with Jorma Kontio, now drawn gate 2. Progressive type second-up with a favourable map.

Debuted at Solvalla over 1640m 14 days ago as a $1.90 favourite but failed to finish behind Jean Jacques. Sticks with Finn Verkaik and moves from the pole to barrier 3. Lightly raced 2YO with scope to improve, but needs to get it right.

Swedish-trained 2YO colt by Italiano Vero out of Evin Boko, prepared and driven by Fredrik Wallin from gate 4. Early days in his career, but the setup looks straightforward and he maps to get his chance from this draw. Keep safe as a lightly raced juvenile with room to progress.

Debuted 18 days ago at Boden over 1640m and scored comfortably from barrier 2 at $3.40, with Olive Oyl Sisu 2nd. Perfect 1-for-1 this season and at the trip, and unbeaten with Leif Eriksson and for Lage Berglund. Rises to barrier 6 second up but profiles as a progressive 2YO.

Promising debut at Lindesberg over 1640m eight days ago, running 2nd of 7 by 0.03m on an EASY track at $7 to Dundee. Steps out second-up with a driver change to Carl Johan Jepson and a wider barrier; with that narrow miss on the board, he looks a solid chance to progress.

Debuted 13 days ago at Jagersro over 1640m and won by 13.07m at $2.62, beating Bearnando. Now second-up with an unbeaten 1640m record (1:1-0-0) and switches from gate 4 to the outside draw. Promising start suggests he can measure up again despite the tougher barrier.
