Clarissa Triumphs in Thrilling V75 Race

Olly Håleryd and Örjan Kihlström were among the top favorites in today's V75 race. However, the duo was bested by a formidable competitor, Clarissa.

– It doesn't seem to bother her that she faces tough races almost all the time, says winning driver Magnus A Djuse after the race.

Favorite Olly Håleryd managed to take the lead midway through the race, leading many to believe the race was over.

But as so often before, Magnus A Djuse had the situation under control.

Together with Alessandro Gocciadoro-trained Clarissa, he positioned himself outside the leader and increased the pace, a move that proved to be winning.

“Incredibly Wonderful”

A bit into the home stretch, Olly Håleryd had to concede, and Clarissa narrowly but surely passed to claim the victory check of 150,000 kronor in the Viola Silas race 2025.

– It felt good all the way, and it didn't cost much to move up in the 'death seat', says Magnus A Djuse on TV12.

– She is an incredibly wonderful horse, she fights to the finish every time, and it doesn't seem to bother her that she faces tough races almost all the time.

Örjan Kihlström believes there wasn't much to be done against Clarissa today.

– She is amazing when she's in form, so there's not much to say. Clarissa is rock solid, and it was clear early in the home stretch that it would be tough.
