The sun was shining on Solvalla and it was a perfect day for trotting.
One after another the horses came out on the track for the obigatory parade. After some warmup the horses lined up behind the car as it began to move down the track.
Tranquil Angel could eventually take the lead after a very dramatic start.
The leader couldn't hold the lead and Close Rocket sprinted to the front.
La Soeur took the lead after 1000m. Listening Satellite didn't have a good time being caught on the outside.
With only a little left of the race Blushing Crystal galoped for 40 m. Listening Satellite litterally flew through the last bend and was first on the homestretch.
