Comments

Back to 2000m where the record is (3:1-0-1), and barrier 1 suits given a 1-0-2 return from inside draws. Last start finished 3rd at Istanbul over 1500 on 27 May behind Boaz and Togarma. Proven at the track and trip, the rise in distance and soft draw look a positive setup.

Comes off consecutive 2nds at Istanbul, latest over 2100m on 24 May behind The Chosen and prior over 2000m behind Last Hero. Track-distance record at Istanbul 2000m is (3:0-1-0) and overall is (10:1-2-0), so another honest showing looks possible from barrier 3.

Comments

Arrives off a 1500m Istanbul win on 6 May, defeating Timetex in a 16-runner field. Overall profile is consistent (7:1-0-4), with a strong A. Kurşun partnership (6:1-0-4) and a handy Istanbul record (4:1-0-1). Barrier 2 should help offset the 500m distance change, suggesting a credible showing if holding that latest form.

Proven at Istanbul with a strong (10:4-1-0) record. Second-up after finishing 6th of 6 at Istanbul over 1500m on 27 May (GOOD), having previously won here at 1500m on 24 Oct. Steps 500m in trip and starts from barrier 7; that solid local profile suggests improvement is possible.

Best run this prep came two back at Istanbul on 8 Apr over 1400m, finishing 3rd of 10 behind Alpha Junior carrying 58kg. Fourth-up with a slight barrier improvement to 4 and a 300m distance change, and with a (4:0-0-1) profile, a repeat of that Istanbul effort would see them competitive.

Draws much better after jumping from 16 when 10th of 16 over 1600m at Istanbul on 31 May (Good), behind Enterprising Rock. Second-up with a 400m distance change and a prior 4th over 1500m here; the kinder barrier is a positive for a runner still seeking a breakthrough (4:0-0-0).

Comments

First-up after 131 days, with a first-up record (2:0-1-1) and a solid Istanbul record (6:2-1-1). Scored over 1400m at Istanbul on 17 Jan 2026, defeating Angel Of Time, then finished 6th of 9 over 1500m on 31 Jan. Faces a 500m distance change and barrier 5 should aid the set-up, so a competitive showing is feasible if ready.
