Scored at Istanbul over 2100m on 27 May from barrier 11 carrying 57kg, with Uzunköprü the runner-up. Drops 100m to a track/distance he handles (Istanbul 2000m: 6:2-0-1), and the draw improves to barrier 4 with 58kg. Recent figures of 1-3-1 underpin a measured winning hope.

Back up in 7 days after finishing 10th of 12 at Istanbul over 2100m on good going under 57.5kg behind Acun Tay. Drops to 55kg and moves to barrier 1 (from 6), while the current jockey is 0-0-0 from 2 rides on him. Recent results are modest, but the lighter weight and inside draw could help him settle closer.

Won over 2000m at Bursa on 16 Mar (10 runners, 54kg, barrier 11) and then ran 2nd over 1900m at Izmir behind Emir Ilyas. Last start was 5th of 6 over 2100m at Bursa with 60kg and he drops to 58kg here. Proven at 2000m (1:1-0-0) and the weight relief could aid a return to form.

Scored at Istanbul over 1900m on 3 Jun carrying 55kg, defeating Ağır Oğlum in a 9-runner race on good ground. Rises to 58kg and stretches to 2000m where he’s (2:0-1-1), while his Istanbul record is strong (15:4-4-1). With a solid partnership with today’s rider (13:4-3-1), he looks a reliable contender.

Scored last start at Sanliurfa on 1 Jun over 2000m (Race 7) from barrier 9 in a 10-runner field, with Çaputhan the runner-up. Now draws barrier 5 and carries 58kg, and has a 2000m record of (2:1-0-1). With recent figures 1-11-4-2-3, he looks capable of holding form at this trip.

Back to 2000m looks suitable given his distance record (4:1-0-1) and he drops 200m from his latest run. Last start he was 7th of 9 over 2200m at Istanbul on 24 May behind Cimringo, and now draws barrier 3 with 56kg for Gök.bektaş. With a busy campaign this season (23:1-1-2), the shorter trip and low draw could help him improve.

Produced a solid 3rd at Istanbul on 3 May over 1400m (Good3) carrying 58.5kg, with Yeşilköylü winning and Çelik Abi 2nd. Rises 600m to 2000m where unplaced from one try (1:0-0-0), but drops 5kg to 52kg and draws barrier 6. Proven at the track (Istanbul 17:1-3-1) and owns a handy 4:1-1 record with Y.ş.gümüş, so a measured hope if the trip suits.

Second-up on a 7-day turnaround after finishing 14th of 18 at Istanbul over 1400m on 5 Jun, with Semrakaya winning.

Drops to 52kg and draws barrier 2, with a course record of (6:1-2-0) offering a practical platform.
