Three qualifying races have laid the foundation for this year's Elitkamp. B.W.Sture won in Sweden, Grisle Tore G.L. in Norway and Stallone in Finland. Now Solvalla has sent out their invitations to the million race that will be decided during the Elitlopp Sunday.
- Unfortunately, the stars have not been perfectly placed in the cold-blooded sky this spring. Öystein Tjomsland's world record horse Brenne Borken hasn't been at his best and won't be, but Elitkampen will still be a top race for the cold-blooded breed, says Ola Lernå.
Three qualifying races for the Elitkampen have been run and Solvalla has now also handed out its three tickets, which go to Swedish Oppgårdsdrängen, Norwegian Baias and Finnish Pro.
- I'm still hoping that Tangen Bork will be in fighting condition by the last Sunday in May, but time has been a little short for the circle around the horse. He can be entered in the race, the last four places are distributed by starting points, says Ola Lernå.
