Comments

Draws barrier 2, and low gates have suited him (barriers 1–3: 7:3-0-2), with a solid 2000m record (6:2-0-1). Freshened 73 days after finishing 8th of 8 at Ankara over 2000m under 61kg, having previously run 3rd at Adana over 2000m behind Bandolero and Görkem Kaptan. The kinder draw and proven trip give him a platform to improve at a track where he’s 1-from-6.

Comments

Comes off back-to-back Ankara wins, latest in a 3UP COND over 2000m here on 13 Jun beating King Luther, after scoring over 2100m on 12 May with Neritor 2nd. Drawn 3 and owns a strong inside-barrier profile (barriers 1–3: 35:7-2-4) along with a solid Ankara record (30:5-3-4) and handy track/distance stats (Ankara 2000: 3:1-0-1). Recent form makes him a genuine contender.

Comments

First-up and has a solid fresh profile (3:1-1-0), drawing barrier 5 where his 4–6 gate record reads (9:4-2-2). Last time out he was 4th at Adana over 2100m on 5 Apr carrying 60kg from barrier 10 on firm behind Dapper Man, and he now comes back to 2000m where he’s (4:0-1-1). With his overall record (26:11-3-4), the draw looks a positive for a forward showing.

Comments

Scored at Ankara over 2000m on 28 May on Good carrying 57.5kg, defeating My Catherine, and owns a handy track-distance mark (Ankara, 2000) (3:1-1-0). Now drawn barrier 4 after barrier 6 there and has a good record when drawn 4–6 (15:5-2-1). Season returns are strong (8:3-2-1), so a repeat of that level keeps her in the mix.

Draws barrier 1 after winning the 1500m 3Y HCP at Ankara on 16 Jun carrying 56.5kg, defeating Goldman. Track stats are solid (4:2-0-0) and Vedat Abi̇ş is 1:1 for Y. Yildiz. Consistent of late and, despite a 500m distance change, the inside draw appeals.
