Race 2

Prize Money: -

GÜLALP KIZI (1) brings the strongest recent staying form and is on a 5‑day turnaround after a 2nd at Istanbul over 2100m (4Y HCP) carrying 56.5kg, with prior 3rds at Ankara 2200m (59kg) and Istanbul 2000m; the slight drop to 1900m suits. SEMRAKAYA (3) is very genuine, having won the Ankara 2200m (4Y COND) on 16 Jun with 54kg and earlier scored at Istanbul 1400m from barrier 18; back on a 7‑day turnaround. GECE GÜZELI (2) steps up 500m but has recent wins at Kocaeli 1700m and 1400m and was 4th here at 1900m on 29 May with 52kg. ZINAMIN (8) draws barrier 1 after a wide run when 4th at Istanbul 1200m on 1 Jul (58.5kg) and was 6th here at 1900m on 29 May with 59kg.

Comments

Racing on a short turnaround after a 2nd at Istanbul over 2100m in a 4Y HCP on 5 Jul carrying 56.5kg, chasing home Olgun Vedat. Prior to that she ran 3rd at Istanbul 2000m and 3rd at Ankara 2200m (GOOD), so the slight drop in trip from barrier 6 looks suitable. Often around the mark at Istanbul (14:0-1-6), and this consistent stretch reads well for another competitive showing.

Comments

Back-to-back wins at Kocaeli (1700m then 1400m) in June were followed by an 8th of 13 at Istanbul over 1400m seven days ago. She also ran 4th of 16 at Istanbul over 1900m on 29 May (GOOD, 52kg), so the 500m distance change from last week is within her recent range. On the short turnaround, a return to her June form would see her competitive.

June form is strong with wins at Istanbul 1400 and Ankara 2200 (4Y COND), defeating Yalikizi and Yumurcak. On a 7-day turnaround after 5th of 13 at Istanbul 1400 (barrier 12) behind Tumbul Müzeyyen; steps up 500m with a better gate (8) and a solid barrier-range record (7-10: 6:1-2-0), though his Istanbul 1900 mark is (1:0-0-0).

Comments

On a short turnaround after winning the 1200m 4Y COND at Ankara on 2 Jul, beating Beray Sultan on FAST with 55kg, and had scored over 1200m at Bursa prior, defeating Çilek Hüma with 51kg. Steps up 700m to 1900m at Istanbul, where it finished 12th of 16 over this trip on 29 May (GOOD) from barrier 13 with 58kg; overall Istanbul record is (11:1-1-0). Barrier 4 and a 1-from-2 record with this jockey give a workable setup, but the rise in trip is the key query.

Runner-up at Ankara over 1200m on 2 Jul in 4Y COND under 55kg from a field of 11, chasing home Yeşilkaya. Back on a short turnaround and stretching 700m in trip; at 1900m he’s (2:0-0-0). Drawn barrier 5, and with Salih Çelik’s strong partnership (6:2-3-0), he’s in the mix if he sees it out.

Comments

On a 7‑day turnaround after finishing 13th of 13 at Istanbul over 1400m on good ground. Steps up 500m to 1900m (2:0-0-0), but draws barrier 2 and has strong low‑draw stats (1–3: 9:3-0-1) and is 1:1-0-0 with this jockey. Recent 3rd over 2000m at Izmir suggests the longer trip can suit, so a rebound is possible from the soft gate.

Draws barrier 1 after jumping from 17 last time, which could help her settle handier. Latest was a 4th of 17 at Istanbul over 1200m (4Y MARES HCP) carrying 58.5kg on good ground. Rises 700m to 1900m, having finished 6th of 16 at Istanbul at the trip on 29 May behind Piyango, and her Istanbul record (7:1-0-2) is a positive platform from the inside gate.
