Second-up after a 5th at Kalmar over 2140m nine days ago, beaten 52.47m from a second-row draw at $81 behind Henrik S.h. Draws barrier 1 now, a significant gate shift from 9, and remains unplaced in two runs at the track and trip. Inside draw can help her settle closer, but she needs to lift on exposed figures.

Draws barrier 2 for trainer-driver Lova Linbacke, a positive setup for a 3YO M by Who's Who out of Giannini. First starter with no exposed race form, so the map and manners will be key from this gate. Presents as a quietly interesting debutant from a handy family.

Strong last-start winner at Vaggeryd over 2148m in a 6-runner maxEarnings=40000.000000, scoring at $3.10 with a clear margin over Forever Bore. Returns four days later second-up with a favourable barrier shift from 2 to 3 and the driver changing to Christoffer Eriksson. Progressive profile this prep (1:1-0-0) suggests he can measure up again.

First up after 8 months with a 500m rise in trip from his last two 1640m runs. Closed 4th at Farjestad (EASY) over 1640m, beaten 13.17m by Tipsy Bee, and now draws barrier 4 with Victor Rosleff taking over. Fitness is the query, but the set-up could help him hold a position and improve.

Three-year-old colt by Mosaique Face out of Princess Wild makes his debut for trainer-driver Tomasz Wisniewski from barrier 5. With no exposed race form, the setup suggests a learning run, but breeding and the stable’s hands-on approach could see him competitive if he does things right.

Third-up with all four career runs at Kalmar over 2140m and yet to place, including 7th of 8 here on 29 Jun over 2140m, beaten 79.75m on EASY going (SP 41) behind Gauthier. Also finished 7th of 10 at the same trip on 22 May, 66.46m from Gauthier on EASY. Needs to lift on those efforts but a new driver is engaged and the barrier shifts to 6.

Debuted with a win at Mantorp over 2140m last week, beating A Lovin Irina after starting $2.50. Now second-up and stays at 2140, with Kevin Oscarsson remaining in the bike and an unbeaten record at the trip and with this driver-trainer setup. Barrier moves from 3 to 7, but he profiles as a progressive 3YO.

Third-up and back with Stefan Persson, who drove at Vaggeryd two back. Latest Kalmar run nine days ago was inconclusive, while prior efforts at Jägersro and Vaggeryd over ~2140m resulted in 7th with margins of 39.43m and 39.84m at $26 and $18. Needs to lift on those figures but the setup may help.

Lightly raced 3YO gelding with two starts this season and yet to hit the placings, including a Charlottenlund run over 2000m 38 days ago. His only try at 2140m came at Jagersro in a maxEarnings=10000.000000 where he didn’t feature behind Kings Wizard and Invicto. Still learning and looking for improvement from barrier 9.

Lightly raced 3yo gelding by Django Riff for Borje Tornkvist, drawn the second row in barrier 10 with Ken Ecce engaged. Pedigree suggests staying credentials through Explosive Matter on the dam side. Map may require luck from the draw, but he presents as a developing type.

Third-up after two Axevalla 2140m runs, improving from 6th (SP 5) to 5th last start, beaten 13.09m behind May J. in a maxEarnings=15000. Barrier shifts from 7 to 11 today, and he remains unplaced at the trip (2:0-0-0), but the latest effort was a step forward. Competitive if he can continue that progression.

Lightly raced 3YO colt by Monark Newmen out of Boogie Woggie, drawn wide in barrier 12. Fredrik Persson trains and drives, which keeps the setup consistent. Tricky gate but the stable’s hands-on approach could help him navigate the run.
