Bursa Race 2

ASALETHAN (1) maps as the one to beat fourth up, coming off a 2nd at Bursa on 14 Aug over 1400m in 2Y COND and now drops 200m; he’s a two-time Bursa placegetter this prep and reunites with A.E. Elmas from his 1000m win here. AYLINPERI (3) resumes third up after a 79‑day break and brings a Bursa win over 1100m first up, with the same jockey/trainer combo successful that day. I LOVE SPEED (2) has solid local grounding with a recent 1300m Bursa win and draws barrier 4, returning to 1200m where he has prior experience. STAR WIZARD (4) draws the inside and has early 2YO sprint form, including an 1100m win at Adana, and can be prominent from barrier 1.

Comments

Proven at Bursa with a strong local record (2:1-1), and returns to 1200m after a 1400m 2nd here five days ago in a 2Y COND. Earlier Bursa debut win over 1000m came with A E Elmas, who reunites from barrier 6 today. With the short turnaround and drop in trip, this setup looks suitable.

Comments

Returns to 1200m with a barrier 4 draw after finishing 6th of 7 over 1400m at Bursa nine days ago in 2Y COND. Prior Bursa form includes a 1300m 2Y COND win and a 1100m 2nd, so the drop in trip looks suitable. Honest local record at Bursa suggests he can be competitive back to this distance.

Comments

Proven at Bursa with a debut win over 1100m from barrier 3 under R. Ketme, and they reunite from the same gate today. Third-up after 79 days and coming off a 100m rise in trip, she also has a solid Istanbul 3rd over 1000m in her first start. The profile reads well for another forward showing at this track.

Comments

Back to the inside draw after racing from wider gates, and reunites with Mehmet Nuri Sunkar, with whom the jockey record sits at 2:1-0-0. Comes off a 5th of 6 over 1200m at Ankara (2Y COND) 13 days ago and earlier won over 1100m at Adana, so the soft draw and familiar rider could help him lift.

Comments

Back on a short turnaround after finishing 4th of 5 in a 2Y COND over 1400m at Bursa five days ago with 54kg, drawn midfield and close-up to winners Çilli Cafer and Asalethan. Earlier prep runs at Bursa read 6th/9 (1200m, 55kg) and 9th/10 (1300m, 57kg), so the drop back 200m suits on exposed form. With barrier 5 again and a light weight, a steady showing at this trip looks within reach.

Draws barrier 2 and debuts for trainer Em.kaya with E.kadırler booked, by Invincible Son out of Sultan Gelin. Well drawn and in experienced hands, this set-up gives a straightforward run style option from the inside gate.
