Istanbul Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: -

BALDWIN (2) maps as the one to beat second up after a 2nd at Istanbul over 1200m on 25 Sep (SOFT, 60kg) and owns a 1400m win; strong current jockey record adds confidence. MAKUL (4) is a danger on the back of a last-start Istanbul 1200m win on 2 Oct (GOOD, 60kg) and stays in a similar setup. CRAZYBLOOD (1) draws barrier 1 and has three 2nds from four at the Istanbul 1400m; recent 2nd here over 1300m on 16 Sep (GOOD, 61kg) reads well. OPERASYON (5) has been holding form with back-to-back 1200m placings at Istanbul (including 3rd on 25 Sep, SOFT, 56kg) and can be competitive up to 1400m.

Comments

Solid at this track and trip with a (Istanbul, 1400) record of (4:0-3-0) and draws barrier 1 again. Two starts back he ran 2nd over 1300m at Istanbul in a 3UP HCP with 61kg, and he’s on a 14‑day turnaround after a 1200m run. Inside draw and proven consistency at 1400m give him a sound platform today.

Comments

Second-up after a narrow 2nd at Istanbul over 1200m on soft 21 days ago from barrier 6, and he draws handier in 5 today. Proven at 1400m (4:1-0-0) and holds a solid jockey combo record (CurrentJockey 6:3-1-0), with two seconds from two Istanbul runs. Profiles to run well again from a suitable gate.

Comments

Proven at 1400m with a (9:2-2-0) distance record and twice placed at this track/trip, and draws well in barrier 3. Comes back up 200m after finishing 8th of 8 over 1200m at Istanbul nine days ago in a 3Y HCP with 60kg, and is reunited with F. Çetintaş, who has a 1-from-2 record on her and combines well with the trainer. Measured on her recent 1400m win at Ankara and her strong inside-barrier stats (1-3: 18:1-6-1), she has a workable setup.

Comments

Scored at Istanbul over 1200m on 2 Oct (3UP F&M COND 4) under 60kg with Gökhan Kocakaya, beating Dejavu, and returns here from barrier 4. Has a solid 1400m record (12:2-2-2) and has won 1 of 6 at Istanbul, with the Kocakaya/Şimşek combo 1 from 1. Draw suits and recent win suggests she can hold form back up to 1400m.

Comments

Draws barrier 2 after closing out 3rd at Istanbul over 1200m on soft two back and then 4th over 1200m on good 14 days ago. Steps to 1400m where his record is modest (8:0-1-1), but he has solid course figures (CurrentTrack 20:2-2-3) and has performed from low gates (barriers 1-3: 12:1-1-3). Honest recent efforts suggest he can be competitive with the soft draw.
