April 11, 2015 – Noras Bean (10m Super Arnie-Easy Bean-Songcan) won today’s L.C. Peterson-Broddas Minne (fourth Olympiatravet qualifier, €150,000SEK to winner, 2140 meters autostart) at Jagersro. The Stefan Soderkvist driven veteran recorded career victory 22 in 77 starts now for earnings of 12,035,653SEK. Noras Bean took an early lead and held that advantage comfortably to win by just over a length in 1.11.1kr. This victory earns an Olymipatravet position albeit Noras Bean tired late and looked unsound coming back to the winners enclosure.
Favorite Maven was away seventh from post 10 in the second row. She moved up with cover, fourth on the outer, until making a solid three-wide surge around the last bend. She was unable to close on the leader and gamely gained second for Johnny Takter by a nose over El Mago Pellini with Lutfi Kolgjini up.
