The fairytale horse gets a recent chance in the largest sprint race in the world.
A fair day (Maharadscha) is available as a horse number seven for this year's edition of Elitloppet.
– Elisabeth does a fantastic job with her horse and I am very ecstatic to invite you again. A fair day looked even stronger this year than last year and I really hope that it can now show how good it is in Elitloppet, says Malmrot.
A fair day received his pink ticket for elitelopp last year after winning the Duke of Värmland, Prince Carl Philip's Jubilee Cup. But his elitelopp debut did not last long – he galloped shortly after the start and the dream of a last place went into smoke for the favorite of the crowd.
A fair day made a real breakthrough when he won the Crown final in Eskilstuna in 2023 as a four-year-old. The popular six-year-old has developed since then-and now a recent chapter is being written in this Småland Elite Racing saga.
He started this year's season with a superior victory and after the triumph in the LC Peterson-Broddas Minne on Saturday in Jännern-Wieder a success balance for five-year Swedish-is again ready for eliteloppet.
During the broadcast of V75 directly in TV4 on Saturday, Elitlopp Manager Anders Malmrot announced that a fair day is now officially invited to this year's starting field.
– I am overjoyed that we can take part in Elitloppet again. It is joy, happiness and gratitude – and it will be wonderful to go to Solvalla on the last Sunday in May, says coach Elisabeth Almheden.
