The snack horse comes to Elitloppet.
After Saturday's mouth-watering second place in the Paralympics, Very Kronos is the seventh horse to accept a pink ticket.
<\/strong>- His finish was five-star and he will be very exciting to see in Elitloppet in 2021,\" says Solvalla's sports director Anders Malmrot.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the beginning of his career, it was very win or lose, but in recent years he has acted more stable and now there are not many gallops in the result line for Very Kronos. The seven-year-old stallion, who has always been a talking point since his career started, won the Swedish Championship 2020 at \u00c5bytravet last year. This in a very impressive way where he pulled away from his competitors and finally won in a new Swedish record, 1.11,6 over the long distance, which is the biggest victory of his career so far.
Very Kronos also won two finals in the Gold Division before the end of the year, Gert Lindberg's race and King Carl XVI Gustaf's Silver Horse, both run at Solvalla, and where he could finally sum up a brilliant season with over 2.2 million SEK earned.
Very Kronos finished second in his annual debut, but after a dubious dress rehearsal the weekend before and being drawn to track ten in Saturday's final of Paralympiatravet, he was not one of the most trusted horses in advance when he visited \u00c5bytravet. However, this was nothing that Very Kronos cared about - after a fast final lap, it was a second place behind the winning Delia du Pommereux in the big race that was rewarded with SEK 700,000.
An effort that convinced and meant that Solvalla's sports director Anders Malmrot on Tuesday chose to invite Very Kronos to the last Sunday in May, which will be the first time he participates in Elitloppet.
- He had a fantastic winter with several big victories last year and his capacity is sky high. After Saturday's performance at \u00c5by, there is no doubt that he belongs in Elitloppet, says Anders Malmrot.<\/p>\n
