Respected star in France.<br><\/strong><strong>Keep Going showed upward form in his last appearance after a slow winter at Vincennes and French top trainer Mathieu Mottier has been eyeing Elitloppet for some time.<\/strong><\/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\">- Keep Going is ferociously fast for a Frenchman. His greatest successes have come over, by French standards, shorter distances and I think he will run eerily fast at Solvalla. Keep Going makes his first appearance in life over 1,609 meters, says Solvalla's sports manager 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\">Keep Going has been at the top of his class since his debut as a two-year-old, but it was when he came to Mathieu Mottier as a four-year-old that things really took off. He won the Four-Year-Old Criterium and the Criterium Continental, the latter earning him a ticket to the Prix d'Am\u00e9rique where he was already competing as a five-year-old. He was in the PDA again this year after a second place in the Prix du Bourbonnais qualifier behind Inmarosa.<br>- I have been patiently waiting for this ticket and am very grateful that it came. He has been working on it all along and feels really good. I think an English mile suits Keep Going perfectly. At the same time, I know the opposition is tough, it looks like a fantastic Elitlopp! But now we are there and we hope for the best,\" says Mathieu Mottier.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-fsb-flexible-spacer fsb-flexible-spacer\"><div class=\"fsb-flexible-spacer__device fsb-flexible-spacer__device--lg\" style=\"height:15px\"><\/div><div class=\"fsb-flexible-spacer__device fsb-flexible-spacer__device--md\" style=\"height:15px\"><\/div><div class=\"fsb-flexible-spacer__device fsb-flexible-spacer__device--sm\" style=\"height:15px\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<section class=\"content-block content-block--core content-block--embed\"><div class=\"container-fluid\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Welcome to Elitloppet 2026 - Keep Going! \" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/t2K_tDb-GKo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"featured_media":6635,"template":"","which-event-invited-horses":[9],"class_list":["post-6634","invited-horses","type-invited-horses","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","which-event-invited-horses-elitloppet"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invited-horses\/6634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invited-horses"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/invited-horses"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6635"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"which-event-invited-horses","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.elitloppet.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/which-event-invited-horses?post=6634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
