Comments

Proven at Ankara and this trip with a strong track/distance record (Ankara 1600: 8:4-3-0), and he draws barrier 1. Won here two back over 1200 (3UP COND) from the inside gate, then was 4th of 5 over 1400 on GOOD 12 days ago. Back to 1600 looks suitable and his low draw should give him every chance.

Second up after 21 days and stretching 300m to 1600m, where he’s (10:1-0-4) and (CurrentTrack, 1600) (10:1-0-4).

Consistent at Ankara 1400m this prep, running 3rd of 12 in a 3UP F&M HCP last time behind Princess Hazal and Simaze, and 4th of 9 the start prior. Steps to 1600m where her track/distance record reads (4:0-1-3), and she draws barrier 4 with 57.5kg; solid each-way profile on recent evidence.

Comments

Comes off a solid 3rd at Ankara over 2200m in a 3UP HCP, carrying 63kg from barrier 2, finishing behind Alphecca and Nart The Battle. Drops 600m to 1600m and draws barrier 3, with a track record at Ankara of (7:1-1-1) and a season profile of two runs for a placing. Consistent locally and the inside draw should see him get his chance.

Proven at Ankara and this trip with a track-distance record of (2:1-0-0), which reads well. Comes here off a 1200m Elazig run 38 days ago and now rises 400m, while drawing better with barrier 8 after a wide gate last time. With M.a.solmaz back aboard and 60kg, a return to a preferred setup can see improvement.

Third-up here after 15 days, he can improve on the Istanbul 1600m run when 8th of 9 behind Hidan, building off a 3rd over 1400m the start prior. With Müs.çelik aboard again and a suitable setup, he profiles to run to his best.

Third-up and back to 1600m, he brings two recent 4ths at 1900m (Ankara, then Istanbul) and now drops from 56kg/52kg to today’s impost. Solid Ankara profile (12:2-3-1) and effective from wider gates per his barrier record (7-10: 4:1-2-0). With a neutral draw in 7 and Ö. Yildirim aboard, he has the platform to hold his form at this trip despite a modest 1600m record (5:0-0-0).

On a short turnaround after an Ankara 1400m 3Y COND run five days ago, and draws better moving from barrier 10 to 6. Steps back 200m today and sticks with M A Akgöbek, with limited exposed form but natural improvement possible at this stage of the prep.
