After three straight finals, everything finally fell into place for the French horse. Go on Boy was superior when he, with trainer and driver Romain Derieux in the sulky, trotted home the Elitloppet 2025.

Magnificent. He was superior and good as usual. He deserved the win, says Derieux according to Aftonbladet.

The winning time was set at 1.08,4 over 1,609 meters. The first place gives a prize check of five million kronor.

It was at least a second place. Don Fanucci Zet, trained by Daniel Redén and with driver Paul Philippe Ploquin, came in second. Hohneck, with driver Gabriele Gelormini, came in third.
