Draws barrier 1 with Ove A Lindqvist for Saara Leino, which should afford a soft early trip. US-bred by R.c.royalty out of Ellix Rhyme, the setup hints at gate speed and an economical run. From the pole, has the map to give a competitive account.

Debuted 12 days ago at Boden over 2140m and scored from the pole at $13, defeating Middlebrook by a narrow margin. Unbeaten at the track and trip (1:1-0-0) and again partners with Mats Ranlund from a similar low draw. Second up with scope to build on that winning start.

Draws barrier 3 for Henri Makinen with Kari Alapekkala to drive. By Flocki D'Aurcy out of Sembs Ouradour, this 5YO mare gets a handy gate to settle close. Respectable setup but needs to show race-day form.

Returned from a long break with a win at Skelleftea over 2140m 17 days ago, scoring from barrier 5 at $10 in a maxEarnings=25000 and maintaining a perfect record with this driver, trainer, and from gates 4-6. That success also makes him 1-from-2 at the trip this season and he remains second-up. Well set to progress off that fresh victory.

Third-up and coming off a close 3rd at Boden over 2140m, beaten just 0.04m at $2.38 behind Backwood Gilda and Aussie. That run followed a 4th at the same track and trip, and he holds consistent 2140/Boden stats (2:0-0-1). Draws 5 with the same driver and looks ready to hold his form at this distance.

Consistent without breaking through this season (5:0-0-0), holding 5th at Rattvik over 2140m 13 days ago, beaten 13.4m behind Nickel Curve at $34. Prior runs include 5th at Solanget (2140m) beaten 13m at $61 and a 4th at Ostersund over 2140m, all at this trip. Honest efforts at 2140m suggest a place chance with the right run.

Second up after a 12-day break and returns to Riku Salminen, who drove when 6th at Boden over 2140m on 22 Jun, beaten 53.17m in a maxEarnings=750000. Barrier shifts from 3 to 8 since the latest run and he remains unplaced from two tries at the track and trip. Needs to lift on exposed Boden/2140 figures but can be fitter into this.

Six-year-old entire from Saara Leino with Sandra Eriksson engaged and drawn 10. By R.c.royalty out of Nemesis Avenger, he gets a soft second-row sit to track the speed. Map looks economical and he’s a place chance if the breaks come.

Has had seven runs this season without a placing and is 0 from 6 at 2140m. Latest two at Jagersro were 8th of 9 over 2140m on 21 Apr and an unplaced effort on 14 May, with prior margins of 38.88m at Halmstad and 102.58m at Jagersro suggesting she was well back. Needs a lift from this draw change to be a factor.
