Ran 2nd at Ankara over 1400m on 16 May, chasing home Power Of Hakeem under 60kg from barrier 7. Back to 1500m where he is (7:2-2-0), and at Ankara 1500 he’s (3:0-2-0). H. Çizik, who partnered his 12 Apr Adana 1500m win, regains the ride and he shapes as a solid chance at the trip.

Comments

High-percentage profile with an overall (23:9-6-3), strong at 1500m (9:4-2-1) and effective at Ankara (3:2-0-0), including 1-from-2 at the track and trip. Latest run was 2nd at Izmir over 1400m on May 23 carrying 60kg, having previously won at Ankara 1500m on Apr 23 over Principesa Nilo. Barrier 5 suits given his 4–6 gate record (8:4-2-1), so he looks set to be competitive.

Returns first-up after 51 months and draws barrier 1 with Sal.çelik for Ö.güneli. Last seen winning back-to-back 1400m races at Istanbul in Feb 2022, defeating Cafer Bey and Another Breeze. Proven ability is evident, though the lengthy layoff is the query.

Comments

Arrives off back-to-back Ankara 1400m wins, most recently on 28 May defeating North Pasha after a 16 May success under E Çankaya over Black Pablo. Draws barrier 4 and reunites with Çankaya, who is 8:2-3-1 on him, but he is yet to score at 1500m (8:0-2-1). In form with a handy gate, he looks set to run well again.

Comments

Proven at 1500m with a strong record (6:3-1-1) and a solid track-distance return (4:2-0-1). Drops 400m on a short turnaround after finishing 4th at Kocaeli on 9 Jun in a GROUP 3 3UP over 1900m carrying 60kg. With a reliable partnership with the current jockey (14:4-3-4) and an overall (32:11-6-6), he looks well suited back to this trip.

Flying this season (8:7-1-0) and last start won at Kocaeli over 1700m on 26 May carrying 59kg, beating Dragon Kingdom. Drops to 1500m where he’s (7:2-3-0), draws barrier 2 with a standout record from barriers 1-3 (29:23-4-0), and partners M. Kaya (20:13-4-1), so he looks well placed to hold his form.

Closed off for 2nd at Ankara over 2200m on 4 Jun carrying 60.5kg behind Galloon. Drops 700m to 1500m where he’s placed at the track-distance (1:0-0-1), draws barrier 3 with a strong low-draw record (barriers 1-3: 9:4-2-1), and reunites with V.abiş who is (5:2-1-0) on him; profiles to run well.
