Comments

Won back-to-back 2000m races at Antalya in March and April, including over Alameti Farika and Army Hero. Latest run was 7th of 9 at Ankara over 2200m on 14 May carrying 58kg, and now drops 300m after 68 days. The partnership with Müslüm Çelik reads (4:2-0-0), so a return to that Antalya form would see him competitive.

Comments

Closed into 3rd at Ankara over 1900m in a 3UP HCP (8 runners) on 2 Jul from barrier 8 carrying 52kg, behind We Are The Best and Master Of Race. Previously broke through in a 3Y MDN at Ankara over 1600m on soft on 13 Jun from barrier 17, defeating Pevrul. Reliable local profile with Ankara (5:1-1-2) and 1900m (2:0-1-1) figures, and the current jockey partnership (6:1-1-2) suggests another honest showing.

Draws barrier 2 and faces a 600m distance change after finishing 7th of 7 over 1300m at Ankara on 4 Jul (59kg), the race won by King Luther. Prior run produced 3rd of 13 in a 3Y HCP at Ankara over 1400m with 61kg, behind For Freedom and Army Hero. Also a 1600m winner at Istanbul on 19 Apr with Astra Lumina the runner-up, so the soft draw could help a rebound.

Has built a solid Ankara mile profile this prep: won over 1600m on 23 Apr beating Abidin Bey, then 2nd on 21 May to Ganiiy carrying 53.5kg, and 3rd on 18 Jun behind Crazy Dildar. Fourth-up with season stats (7:1-1-2) and sound records at Ankara (5:1-1-1) and with the rider (5:1-1-1). Steps 300m in trip and drawn 7; unplaced from two starts when drawn 7-10, but consistent recent efforts keep him in the mix.

Draws barrier 1 after a solid 4th of 10 at Ankara over 1600m (3UP HCP) from barrier 9 on Good, carrying 55kg, behind Seigreich. Steps up 300m to 1900m, a trip where he was 3rd of 7 at Ankara two back and holds a (Ankara, 1900) record of (1:0-0-1). The better draw and return to a proven trip give him a sound chance to figure.

At Ankara, was 3rd of 6 in a 2200m 3Y HCP on 23 Jun before finishing 6th of 7 over 1900m on 4 Jul behind Rite Of Spring.
