Solvalla Race 1 - Race 1
DERRY GIRL (5) rates on top after two 2nds at 2140m, including a narrow miss (beaten 0.04m) and a solid placing last start, and the draw looks kinder than recent. RED RUN (3) is a major threat with back-to-back thirds this prep, the latest at Solvalla when beaten only 0.03m, and maps to get his chance from gate 3. NEXT LEVEL MEARAS (2) has winning 2140m form and comes off a decisive Bollnas victory, so a repeat of that effort keeps him right in the finish. LOOK WHO'S TALKING (6) is the blowout after a nose 2nd at this track and trip two runs ago; if he reproduces that run he can figure, but leaning DERRY GIRL (5) in a tight verdict.

Third up and stays at 2140m, with both runs this prep at Solvalla over this trip. Last start here on 4 Nov she was 6th of 10, beaten 26.1m at $51.00. Prior run on 9 Oct was also at this track and distance at $91.00. With Rikard N Skoglund booked again for Stefan Melander, she has race-fit grounding at the trip to work from.

Switches to Solvalla after an Orebro 2100m run on 29 Oct when sent off $2.80 on an easy track. Steps to 2140m and draws Mika Forss for Holger Ehlert. Set-up looks suitable and she profiles as an improver.

Runner-up here over 2140m on 18 Oct, beaten just 0.03m at $9.50, which reads well for this set-up. That effort came at Solvalla, so the track and trip hold no fears. Karl Aikio drives and trains, keeping the familiar pairing. Honest claims off that narrow Solvalla second.

Third up and stays at 2140m after a Solvalla run on 4 Nov at this trip at $8.00. Draws for Markus B Svedberg again, which keeps things straightforward. With that set-up, Emelie Eagle gets another look at the same conditions.

Four-year-old gelding for Jimmi Ehlers with Kenneth Gorski engaged. Last start was at Romme over 2140m on 30 Oct at $51.00. Steps to Solvalla at the same trip and draws wider than some, so a measured framing of his chance is appropriate.
