Consistent at 2000–2100m this prep, including a 2nd at Adana over 2000m and a close 4th at Ankara (2000m) on 18 Jul from barrier 5. Returns off 54 days with a 200m drop and draws barrier 7, while the Ertuğrul Cankiliç/K. Arda combo boasts a strong (6:3-3-0) record. Solid profile for another competitive showing.

Comments

Returns to Ankara where he’s twice placed, including 3rd over 1300m (TB) 12 days ago behind Wolf Şahin after settling from barrier 3 with 58.5kg. Draws barrier 5 here and has strong synergy with the current jockey/trainer combination (4:1-2-1), which reads well for another honest showing.

Comments

Consistent at Ankara with a (5:1-2-1) track record and placed fresh this season, he returns off a 14-day turnaround. Notably stretches 700m from 1500m, and reunites with Özcan Yildirim whose partnership reads (3:1-1-0). Proven locally and with solid recent 1200–1500m form, he profiles as a credible chance if he stays the step up in trip.

Comments

Ultra-consistent at Ankara with 6 starts for 3 seconds and a third, and has filled the quinella in three straight runs over 2100–2200m, including a 2nd over 2200m in a 3UP HCP 15 on 8 Aug. Draws barrier 2 again and rises 100m from his latest 2100m 2nd, which looks a suitable set-up. Genuine chance to be in the finish again.

Comments

Draws barrier 1 and reunites with F.S.M. Sansar, a pairing that’s 2-from-2 and won here at Ankara over 2100m from the inside draw on 2 Jun. Returns to Ankara where the track record is strong (5:2-1-0), and the inside gate should allow a soft run. On a 17‑day turnaround and back with preferred rider, he looks set to improve on recent Bursa efforts.

Consistent this prep with thirds at Kocaeli over 2000m and 1800m before a solid 5th of 7 at Istanbul over 2200m 20 days ago in 3Y HCP. Draws barrier 3 after the rail last time and carries a much lighter 50.5kg than the 59.5kg two starts back, which could help him see out this trip. Competitive on recent evidence and suited by the gate and weight.

Progressive at Ankara this prep, breaking through over 2100m 19 days ago under 50kg, beating Female Warrior from barrier 3. Prior 2100m runs there read 2nd and 3rd, and today draws barrier 4 with the same rider who has a solid (5:1-2-1) record aboard. Honest staying profile at this track suggests she can hold form.
