Romme Race 8 - Race 8
OLD MAID BOKO (2) rates on top off a sharp 2140m win at Romme then another narrow success, with 6 wins at the trip underpinning her recent streak. TRUE LIES (7) looks the main danger given three placings in his last five and two tight 2nds over 2140m, holding consistent late strength. TIMOTEJS MESSENGER (4) has claims back to 2140m after a dominant 3140m win and solid Romme record, suggesting he holds his form here. FLYS PUNK ROCKER (5) can feature off recent 3rds at this trip and a handy record from middle draws, but the verdict leans to OLD MAID BOKO (2).

Back to Romme over 2140m after an Eskilstuna run over the same trip where he was 8th of 10, beaten 13.7m at $101.00. Prior start here at Romme was also at 2140m on 29 Sep when sent off $19.00. Driver change to Emma Lind could help. Needs to lift but the set-up is familiar and a smoother trip brings him into it.

Won 3 of last 5 and returns to the same 2140m at Romme where she scored on 19 Oct (won by -0.07m at $2.05). Strong record at this trip (19:6-5-1) backs that up. Driver switches to Henrik Kihle from Rikard N Skoglund. Well set up back to a proven distance and track combination.

Placed 3rd of 10 over 2140m at Romme on 29 Sep, beaten 13.7m at $14.00, so he’s proven at this trip and track. Driver switches to Isabella Jansson Wiklund from Oskar Kylin Blom. With that recent Romme effort as a guide, looks a fair chance to hold his own.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and comes off a solid 3rd of 12 at Eskilstuna over 2140m on 15 Sep, beaten 13.64m at $12.00. Records at this track and trip read well enough (8:1-2-2), and he’s been effective from similar draws (barriers 4-6: 10:3-2-1). Driver switches to Lina Lekander from Jennifer Persson. Honest claims on recent form and a suitable setup.

Proven at this trip around Romme with a solid (5:2-0-1) record at the track and distance. Steps from 1640m at Gavle on 31 Oct to 2140m here and reunites with Jenny A Björk. That profile around this circuit suggests a suitable set-up for Ares.

Back to 2140m after a 1640m Romme run on 19 Oct when 5th of 9, beaten 27.29m at $9.50. Prior effort at this track and trip on 28 Aug reads better, finishing 3rd of 7, beaten 13.49m at $2.70. Driver switches to Fredrik Plassen from Kajsa Frick. Mixed recent figures but the return to this distance at Romme gives her a chance to settle into the right rhythm.

Strong last run when 2nd of 11 at Farjestad over 2640m on 6 Nov, beaten just 0.04m at $19.00. Returns to Romme and this 2140m trip, the scene of his 22 Aug run, with Simon Helm taking over the drive. That near-miss reads well. Competitive on that evidence.
