But his first meeting with the world's elite certainly tickles. \"It's a bit like not knowing where Dream Mine's limits are, but we'll find out the last weekend in May,\" says Solvalla's sports director Ola Lern\u00e5.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n<section class=\"content-block content-block--core content-block--paragraph\"><div class=\"container-fluid\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dream Mine became the most profitable Swedish-bred four-year-old of all time last year when he took two Derby victories, won the Breeders\u2019 Crown and just over nine million kronor. In his debut last week, he finished brilliantly to win a new track record in Ume\u00e5.<br>- He was really hard-working, but he hadn't done any tougher times. I was very impressed with his performance,\" says J\u00f6rgen Westholm.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n<section class=\"content-block content-block--core content-block--paragraph\"><div class=\"container-fluid\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Who will choose a slightly different approach for Elitloppet.<br>- He will not start before the trials. Instead, I will do a really tough job with him. I've been around since the day this horse was born and I think I know how to put him in absolute top condition for Elitloppet,\" says Westholm, who is also the breeder of Dream Mine.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n<section class=\"content-block content-block--core content-block--paragraph\"><div class=\"container-fluid\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Solvalla trainer thus has two horses in the Elitloppet, since earlier Jobspost is also invited.<br>- It feels absolutely fantastic!
