Comments

Proven at Ankara with a strong track record (32:9-5-7) and a serviceable return at the track/distance (10:1-2-3). Last start was 4th of 7 at Ankara over 1600m on 27 Jun in 3UP COND 7 carrying 58kg, with Patrick Star winning and Gel Oglim 2nd, and he backs up on a short turnaround. Solid this season (12:3-1-0) and the current rider has figures of (4:1-0-1), so a competitive showing is within reach.

Comments

On a 7-day turnaround after finishing 14th of 18 in the Istanbul Group 2 3Y over 2000m on 28 Jun from barrier 16 under 58kg, with Shadow Soldier winning. Previously ran 3rd of 7 at Istanbul over 2000m on 3 Jun behind Mr Çirak and El Gladiador. Drops 400m and draws 5, a range where he’s 6:1-2-1, and his overall strike-rate is solid (15:6-2-3), so a sharper setup could see improvement.

Proven at the Ankara mile (9:4-2-2). Won here over 1600m on 11 Jun, defeating Gel Oglim, and now draws barrier 4 which sits within a favourable gate range (gates 4-6: 10:3-1-2); well placed to hold form.

Returns to his preferred Ankara mile where he’s 7:4-2-0 at the track/distance and 10:4-3-0 at 1600m overall. Comes back 300m after a 4th in a 3UP at Ankara on 23 Jun behind Stalwart Hera, and draws barrier 2 with solid low-draw figures (1–3: 10:3-2-2). Second-up, this setup looks suitable for a forward showing.

Comments

Back on a short turnaround after winning a 3UP CLAIM 3 over 1400m at Ankara on 26 Jun from barrier 1 with 55kg, defeating Tywin Lannister. Steps up 200m and owns a solid 1600m record (7:2-2-2) along with proven Ankara figures (18:3-5-5) and at Ankara 1600 (7:2-2-2). Drawn barrier 1 again, and with a positive trainer-jockey record (2:1-0-1), the set-up looks suitable.

Handles Ankara well (23:6-4-2), with two wins at the Ankara 1600m (6:2-0-0). Was 7th of 7 in a 3UP CLAIM 3 over 1400m here on 26 Jun behind Mahall and Tywin Lannister, and now rises 200m; the partnership with M. Keski̇n is yet to place from five rides, so a measured view is prudent.
