Let's find out what the main points of interest are for Sunday's meeting in Vincennes.
Visitor of the day: Magnus A. Djuse
Originally from Östersund, in the north of Sweden, Magnus A. Djuse (24 years old) quickly established himself as one of the country's most promising talents, already with two Golden Helmets, the equivalent of Sulky French Gold. Sunday, he will perform for the second time in his career at Vincennes, where he will be the driver of Global Standard (Brillantissime) in the Critérium Continental-Amérique Races Q#3 (Group 1), driven by Fredrik Wallin.
Coming from a family passionate about racing, it was quite natural that Magnus chose to work with trotters, his father and his three brothers also being recognized professionals in Sweden. He studied at the horse racing school in Wången and apprenticed with Jan Hallberg. He won his first race at Solänget at 16, with a purebred trotter named Jericho Windand becomes the youngest Swedish driver to enter the very closed circle of 1,000 victories in July 2023, just seven years after his debut. Today approaching 1,500 winners and holder of 9 Group 1s, he experienced his first success at the highest level in August 2021, in the Jubileumspokalen in Solvalla with Aetos Kronos (Bold Eagle), trained by Jerry Riordan.
He is currently in the fight for a new Golden Helmet, his end-of-year goal, 8 victories behind his brother Mats who is also having a magnificent season. In the future, he wishes to continue to achieve success and expand on an already impressive track record given his young age.-
