Solvalla Race 2 - Race 2
CARL RAPID (2) sets the standard after a narrow 2nd at Solvalla over 2140m (beaten 0.01m), and draws to hold a forward spot second up. KID ANTRIM ZET (6) is next on exposed form, improving to 4th at Bergsåker over 2140m (beaten 12.93m) last start and stays at the trip. Debutants INTENSITY D'ARC (9) and AIR TIME TROT (10) add X-factor and look the pick of the first starters on profile, but they’ll need to match race-fit rivals; slight edge to CARL RAPID (2) on proven course-and-distance form.

Driver switches to Claes Sjöström for Philharmonic. Comes off a Solvalla 2140m run on 21 Oct on easy going at $71.00. Lightly raced 3yo gelding for Stefan Melander and stays at the same trip. Holds a place chance with the driver change and track familiarity.

Second up and returns to the same Solvalla 2140m trip after a narrow 2nd of 10 here on 21 Oct, beaten just 0.01m at $3.90. That run showed he handles the track and set-up, and Magnus A Djuse sticks. Well placed to build on that performance.

First starter 4YO gelding by Cash Gamble out of Ocean Topkip for trainer-driver Jevgeni Ivanov. Debuts over 2140m at Solvalla. Stable hands both reins and preparation, which can aid ringcraft on debut. Low-profile setup but the pairing is consistent, so a measured first look.

Driver change to Fredrik Plassen and stays at the 2140m Solvalla trip she saw on 7 Oct. That run came on an easy track at $23.00, so any improvement with the new hands could help. Trained by Mattias Djuse, she gets a consistent set-up and looks a quiet improver.

Third up and returns to Solvalla over 2140m where he started $3.80 on 2 Sep. Last start at Bergsaker over this trip he finished 4th of 8, beaten 12.93m at $3.20. Örjan Kihlström takes over, which could suit given the return to home track and trip. Solid enough set-up to be competitive.

First starter by Southwind Frank out of Darling Boko for trainer-driver Conrad Lugauer. Three-year-old mare debuts over 2140m at Solvalla. Stable handles both duties, which can aid tactics. Low-profile set-up but an acceptable debut scenario.

First starter by Fabulous Wood out of Vogue Di Poggio for trainer-driver Björn Goop. Debuts over 2140m at Solvalla and draws out wider. Stable knows this circuit well and the setup looks straightforward. Market and parade may guide, but the profile is tidy for a debut.

First starter 3YO gelding for Mattias Djuse, with Mats E Djuse to drive. Well-bred by Readly Express out of Uma Gio. Draws wide but gets the 2140m at Solvalla. Respectable debut set-up without exposed form.
