Comments

Won at Istanbul over 2100m on 5 Jun, defeating Crazy Tiz, and also scored there over 2000m on 15 May. Draws barrier 3 after jumping from 9 last time, and Kocakaya’s record on the horse is (3:1-1-0). Solid track profile (Istanbul 13:3-2-3) suggests another competitive showing.

Comments

Solid overall profile (36:10-5-6) and goes well for M. M. Bilgin (6:2-1-0). On a short turnaround after finishing 4th of 5 at Bursa over 1400m on 25 Jun in 3Y with 60kg behind Prenses Sylvester. Won at Bursa over 2000m on 5 Jun (runner-up Miss Conqueror), and the 800m distance change today is the key to prospects.

Comments

In strong touch this season (10:4-2-2) and last start ran 2nd at Bursa over 2000m on Good in a 12-runner race, carrying 60.5kg behind Marion. Steps to 2200m, a trip that suits (12:4-1-1), and reunites with Müslüm Çelik, who has a 7:2-3-0 record on the horse including the May 31 win at Adana. Draws barrier 2 and profiles to run well again.

Posted 5th of 12 at Istanbul over 2100m on 5 Jun (Good, 55kg), then finished 15th of 19 at Bursa over 1200m on 12 Jun (Good, 60kg) behind Big Honey. Now tackles a 1000m distance change and reunites with his regular rider, a partnership showing 9:1-1-1. Mixed recent results, but the rider record and having been tried at varied trips suggest some scope to rebound.

Draws barrier 1 and gets A.kurşun back aboard, with whom she is (1:1-0-0). Last start 4th of 8 at Istanbul on 19 Jun over 2000m behind Visenya. Up to 2200m where she is yet to place (2:0-0-0), but a strong low-barrier record (barriers 1-3: 11:5-1-1) suggests the draw can help.

Second-up on a 14-day turnaround after finishing 5th of 8 over 2000m at Istanbul on 19 Jun, behind Visenya. Drawn barrier 6 with a 4–6 barrier record of (6:1-1-0) and an Istanbul record of (8:1-1-0), and makes a slight 200m distance change that could help deliver a competitive run.
