7 Real News has shown good form recently and comes from a nice third place. He races barefoot for the first time now and that is interesting.

8 Nightwish River was more heavily backed than our pick last time and finished fourth, just behind him. Tougher number too but American bike and barefoot behind now. Contender.

4 Global Excellence is our favorite for the lead and has  finished second from the front at the end. Has to be considered if he is allowed to dictate the pace. Jenny Engfors now.

6 Face to Face won half of ten races last year and earned the most money. Has not won yet this season but is possible behind our top duo.

4 Lucca scored a close but comfortable win last time from the lead. Could reach the front again and from there he is the horse to beat.

6 Cool Hand Energy got a run under his belt in the last race and his form has probably improved a lot. In the fight for victory.

5 King Size kept up the pace well in the last race after a tough journey on the outside during the final lap. Won comfortably the previous race and looks to be in top form. In the mix.

3 Alunita comes back after a pause, but will be racing barefoot and an American bike straight away - which is interesting.

7 Cab Frontline has six wins and likes this discipline. He will benefit from this small field and is the obvious favorite.

6 Global Easy Rider tested this discipline for the first time in a long time in the last race and scored a good win. Barefoot now and the main challenger.

3 Gold Ripasso sprinted quite nicely to a second place behind Global Easy Rider two starts back.

2 Safety Tile was a clear third behind Global Easy Rider and Gold Ripasso in the same race.
