Victory in the Finlandia Ajo million-dollar race and a direct place to the last Sunday in May.
After today's win, Stoletheshow is horse number ten in the Elitloppet 2023.
- He made a very strong effort. I thought it felt good in the last turn and Stoletheshow then settled in a good way over the finish line, said driver Magnus A Djuse afterwards.
As in recent years, winning the Finnish Grand Prix Finlandia Ajo means a direct place to Elitloppet at Solvalla. On Sunday, an exciting edition was settled where in the end it was Stoletheshow who stood as the winner after being the strongest from the outside leader. The first prize in Finlandia Ajo was 110,000 euros and after the win, a debut in Elitloppet now awaits him.
Stoletheshow's biggest victory came in 2022 in the Oslo Grand Prix and after Sunday's big race victory, he has run in almost ten million kroner. Solvalla's sports director Anders Malmrot was very pleased that today's winner will be Elitloppet's tenth participant.
- Stoletheshow did a great performance and it was great to see him in this condition today. He was in the talk last year and now gets the chance in Elitloppet 2023, says Anders Malmrot.
