At $71.00 finished 4th last run at Solvalla but going back up in distance. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Only fair when 6th last run at Arjang. Magnus Teien Gundersen takes the reins today. Hard to see it being competitive today.

Ran 4th last run here. Capable of a strong comeback and returns to a longer distance. Erlend Rennesvik rates highly. Recent form of the stable is strong. Has strong claims.

Towards the tail last time at Amal. Giving another chance here but back in trip. Stable have opted for a driver change with Eirik Hoitomt steering. Solid claims.

Game effort to win narrowly last start here. Can't knock the form winning 3 in a row. Gains the services of driver Frode Hamre. Can win this.
