Goteborg Race 3 - Race 3
APPROVAL (2) brings winning 2100m and 1750m Bro Park form into 3000m and maps well from barrier 2; latest win on 30 Aug came from midfield in an 8-runner field. AMAZING PACE (4) scored over 2300m at Klampenborg 10 days ago and stays on the up; consistent here with two placings at Goteborg. ICEFALL (6) was 4th of 6 over 2200m at Jagersro 16 days ago and is a dual 2200–2400m winner this prep, which reads well for the step to 3000m. LORD GREYSTOKE (5) closed for 3rd of 12 over 2400m at Ovrevoll last start and draws better today after barrier 13 there, so can run on late.

Fourth-up and draws barrier 1, returning to 2400m with a notable 600m step up in trip. Best recent figure was 3rd of 5 over 2200m at Klampenborg on 12 Jun behind Lord Of The Moon and Lindeboy. Inside draw should aid a soft run and give him his chance at this longer journey.

Comes in off back-to-back wins at Bro Park over 2100m (SP 10) and 1750m (SP 6.5), beating King Of Sardinia and Zensation. Draws barrier 2 and switches from Jacob Johansen to Lorenzo Putzulu, with a sharp 1250m drop in trip. Progressive this season (2:2-0-0) and the soft draw should help offset the significant distance cutback.

Back on a short 2-day turnaround after Ovrevoll (1980m), where he was unplaced behind Another Beauty. Prior run he broke through at Jagersro Galopp over 2200m as a $1.28 favourite with Oliver Wilson, and he draws well again in barrier 3. Solid recent profile suggests he can be competitive if he copes with the quick back-up and significant trip shift.

Comes here 10 days after a Klampenborg 2300m win, beating Great Green Rose, and now faces a sharp 700m drop in trip. CurrentTrack record is solid without a win (2:0-0-2), and he draws barrier 4 again. Short turnaround and the distance cutback are the key queries, but his recent win has him in the right vein.

Fourth-up and back up sharply in trip by 600m, he was a solid 3rd of 12 over 2400m at Ovrevoll on 25 Aug after jumping from a wide barrier 13 behind Super Smooth and Phantom Bling. Earlier in the prep he won a 1600m race at Klampenborg and ran 2nd over 1980m at Ovrevoll, both with Carlos Lopez, who reunites here from barrier 5. Honest profile this campaign and the draw should afford a more economical run at the longer journey.

Proven at 2200-2400m with wins at Jagersro Galopp on 17 Jun (2200m) and 12 Jul (2400m), the latter as a $1.5 favourite over El Kerola. Last start 4th of 6 over 2200m at Jagersro Galopp 16 days ago and now draws barrier 6, which matches his barrier record range. Genuine staying profile and recent form suggests he can be competitive again.

Back on a short 6‑day turnaround after finishing 3rd at Jagersro over 1730m at SP 7.5, with Zensation the winner. Steps up sharply in trip today (up 1270m) and draws barrier 7, a gate from which he’s 1/1 per his barrier record. Proven winner at Jagersro and from this alley, so the setup looks suitable if he stays the longer journey.

Honest this prep with seconds and thirds at Jagersro Galopp, including a 2nd over 1600m on 3 Jul behind Bushwacker at $12, and a solid 3rd over 1600m at Klampenborg on 1 Aug from barrier 14. Latest run was 7th of 12 at Bro Park over 1750m on 30 Aug at $29, and now draws barrier 8 with Jacob Johansen retaining the ride. Consistent profile suggests he can be competitive again with a tidy run in transit.
