Here are our outputs:

V86-1 

4 A View To A Kill is developing well and getting better with each start. Has delivered several strong performances recently and showed good form at Easter at Klosterskogen. Will have an exciting race here with good conditions. Is fast from the start and from track four has the potential to take an early lead. Barefoot balance has been reported for the first time, which is a clear plus. From the lead she will be difficult to beat over 1609 meters. 

V86-2 

2 Love to Know developed well last year with six podiums in eight starts, three of which were wins in tough races. This year he has followed up with a win and a second place in two starts. The win came on New Year's Day before he had a break of just over three months. Last time at Bollnäs he delivered a strong race and kept up the pace well to a second place. With that race in his body, a clear improvement in form is expected, and now it will be barefoot balance. Together with Magnus Djuse he should get a good position early and should be counted early with normal performance. 

V86-3 

1 Kvaals Tinn is a quick-footed type who has won almost half of his starts. Had a very strong last year with 17 top three finishes in 19 races, of which 10 were wins. He has also started well this year with three wins in six starts. He last won at Bergen Travpark after taking the lead early and controlling the race the whole way. His form is solid, and with the auto start he will once again be an American sulky. From the inside track the tactics are clear: drive to the lead and hold on. Even against tougher opposition he is a clear winner. 

V86-4 

10 Tindra Håleryd has made a good start this season and has shown great talent. In three starts this year she has taken two wins, both in a row leading up to this race. She last won at Solvalla after taking the lead early and controlling the pace all the way. The impression was very good, and she was not empty at the finish. Now she starts from the back track, which makes the road more difficult. However, she has shown that she also works well from the back. With the right back run and a strong finish she should be counted early again. 

V86-5 

3 Duke Of Walner is an American-born horse with good capacity in the bottom. He delivered usable results early in his career, but never quite got the big breakthrough. After moving to Norway he had a quiet period before he recently switched to Frode Hamre. In his directorial debut at Jarlsberg he certainly won from the lead with strength again. With that race in his body further progress is expected, and the reports from the stable are positive. From a good track over a short distance he is ready for another trip to the lead with Per Oleg Midtfjeld. The opposition is tougher now, but he is still a hot candidate for victory. 

9 Never Mind'em is a stablemate of our tip in the race. Had a solid last year with six podiums in ten starts, three of which were wins. Towards the end of this season he was sold to Norway and Frode Hamre. In his management debut at Bergen he won easily from the lead after controlling the pace. With this race in his body, increasing form is expected, and the reports from the stable are good. Backtracks over 1609 metres are a challenge, however. With the right back run and a bit of flap he is still good enough to fight for the win. I lock on these two. 

V86-6 

3 Mister Navajo is a well-bred trotter from the stable of Alessandro Gocciadoro. He started his career strongly as a two-year-old with three wins in three starts in Italy. This year he has varied a bit, with an okay sixth place at Vincennes. His Swedish debut at Örebro was somewhat lukewarm after a tough race on the outside. With that race in his body, clear progress is expected. Now he will have barefoot balance, which is a clear plus. From a good track he should be counted on early with an expected better performance. 

V86-7 

5 Behind The Kop has started his career very strongly with five wins in seven starts. Has shown both strength and good speed, as well as a nice attitude. The development is pointing in the right direction, and he is getting better with each start. From a good track behind the car, there is a chance of an early lead. From the front he will naturally be difficult to beat and is a clear favorite. Nevertheless, the impression has been somewhat tenacious at times, and the resistance is not insignificant. All in all, he must be counted first, but is not completely without challengers. 

V86-8 

3 Gagu Jet has shown good capacity with five wins in twelve starts. In his debut on Swedish soil he looked powerful, but also a bit unrhythmic in the trot. The uneven action led to a canter and an unsuccessful race. Now he will be barefooted, which probably gives better flow in the stride. He is not the fastest from the start, and the distance may be in the shortest range. With an offensive control and a better trot, it is still time for revenge. The capacity is high, and he must be considered with a good chance of winning.
