1 Henessi Joy has made an improved impression in both race this year and two starts back he won from behind after a quick finish. Here he probably takes the lead and has a good chance then.
3 Kipketer Mearas was matched in tough companies throughout last year and did very well. Is tough and despite this seasonal debut he is an early choice behind our pick.
2 Nunja has a nice lane for a defensive trip and Jepson certainly reaches a good position. Could challenge with the right trip.
6 True Blue had energy left in the last race and is in good form.
View racecard1 Jason Express has always shown great talent and in the successful Törnqvist stable he will also get the chance to show it this year. Nice task and now with a run under his belt. His form should also be further improved.
5 Conrads Åke was a bit up and down last year but also showed really good skills. Trainer Stenströmer sounds very pleased with him before this seasonal debut and he is on the way up.
2 Run Champ Run is capable and got locked in with energy left in an elimination heat to Kriteriet last autumn.
4 Love Happens has shown quite good speed but faces tough conditions money-wise.
View racecard5 Steady Victory has shown fine form for a long time and was not empty after a quick finish in the last race. The form is still good and even though he could get a tough journey here, he will not be easy to beat.
4 Great Time Trot has shown a lot of promise and was successful last year. Has worked well before the seasonal debut and is fast from the start.
8 Run N'Cola will not be easy to beat with the right pace and gets a journey from behind until the home stretch .
3 D.J. Spritz is a bit up and down but really gifted when he is at his best.
View racecard8 Teton Okey Credit has been on a winning streak and won very comfortably in the last race. She has developed very well and shown that she is all-round. Should get a nice trip by Björn Goop from here.
2 Libertad is a quick starter and with four career wins from the lead we expect an offensive journey.
5 Eketorpets Nellie can open fast but will normally not be able to pass Libertad. With the right trip she could be dangerous over the home stretch.
9 Satsumas is speedy with the right journey from behind.
View racecard3 Jula Menuncio was matched in tough companies last year and is reported to be training well ahead of this race. Should be the horse to beat from the lead.
6 Nightrain Boko has shown good capacity for this class and the Rick Ebbinge stable is in fine form again. Barefoot and an American bike now are big advantages.
4 Dimension Trot won easily from the front in the last race. Tougher opponents now but likes these conditions.
8 Frodo De Castella is not bad at all and now he is going barefoot.

11 Steady Express impressed a lot when he started his career in a top time. Now he has become more mature and the stable is pleased. Despite the starting position and the seasonal debut, he should have top chance here.
4 Fast Food was not at his best last time but should be improved. He has the speed and capacity to be in the mix here.
8 Ingmar Banker has good speed and strength but this number is tricky.
10 Nagoia has been on the way up but faces tougher horses here.
