2 The Special Man F. has shown good form lately without winning. He was second behind a good winner in the last run and is our pick here. Likes Jepson and faces nice conditions here. 5 Mascarpone Doc opened fast to the lead in the last run and won comfortably. Good chance if he reaches the front again. 1 Rushlight Face has good skills and is interesting here. The chances are not easy to predict though in this seasonal debut. Outsider. 8 Firebird Scoop won easily in the lead in the last run and showed good form.

3 Arnie Express has done well for Lugauer and is getting better and better. Can open fast and prefers to run in front. 2 Quick Lane was interfered to a mistake two starts back but comes from a good third spot. Perfect number and should reach a nice position. Early choice. 7 Tony Afrika is strong and can do it tough. Should not be overlooked. 5 Echelon is speedy with the right defensive trip and has to be followed too.

7 Bolt Kronos has been improved and scored three good wins in a row. Was outstanding in the last race and faces quite easy opponents here as well. Top chance to win. 3 Rose Stahl has three wins in eight races and did well in Boden last spring. Will be interesting to follow for the new trainer and could find the lead here. 6 Alexia Marshall has quite good capacity for this class and came back strongly after a mistake two starts back despite a pause. Challenger. 5 Usiana Face has failed but can do better. New trainer and should be followed.
