It was a huge spurt that gave Propulsion with the cousin Örjan Kihlström the victory as the horse competed in the Elite race for the fifth time. In doing so, they won the first prize of SEK 3 million.

Propulsion was already making a great effort in the experimental heat as he progressed despite having to spend the entire race out in third track.

Prior to the Elite race, Propulsion had not started since the Prix d'Amerique in January.
