Proven at the track and trip with a (CurrentTrack, 1200) record of 1:1-0-0 and an overall CurrentTrack record of (4:2-0-2). Drops 6.5kg to 63kg and draws barrier 3 after a 1400m Ankara run 33 days ago; reunites with Mustafa Çiçek, who rode the latest win at Kocaeli over 1400m. Solid stats from low barriers (16:2-8-5) suggest a competitive showing back to 1200m.

Comments

Proven at this track with a solid CurrentTrack record (3:1-1-1), he draws barrier 2 and rises to 62kg. Recent 3rd at Kocaeli over 1500m in TB class and earlier 2nd over 1400m read well, though the 1200m record (8:0-1-1) is less compelling. Honest claims if he can translate that middle-distance form back to this trip despite the weight.

Comments

Proven at 1200m (13:3-1-1) and draws the inside after a wide run last time at Izmir over 1200m in a 4UP HCP, now dropping 1kg to 60kg. Recent Kocaeli form reads well with a 1400m TB win on 27 Aug and a 2nd on 1 Oct. With barrier 1 and solid short-course stats, a competitive showing is within reach.

Comments

Proven at 1200m with a strong record (6:3-1-1) and two wins plus a placing at this track/trip, he now drops 200m, sheds 5.5kg to 57kg, and draws better moving from barrier 11 to 5. Last start he stuck on for 3rd at Kocaeli over 1400m (TB) from the outside gate, and he won the run prior at the same track/trip. With solid course stats and the weight/barrier positives, he profiles to run well.

Drops back 200m to 1200m where his record reads 4:0-2-0, and carries 56kg from barrier 7. Recent runs at 1400–1500m were mixed, most recently 10th of 11 at Ankara on 22 Sep in 3UP COND3 (57kg) from a wide gate. The return to his preferred trip gives him a chance to improve.

Comments

Consistent this season (5:0-2-1) and twice placed at Kocaeli recently, including a 2nd over 1800m on 1 Oct and a 3rd over 1400m on 15 Sep. Drops 300m in trip and draws better from barrier 6 after a wide gate last time; overall track record (11:0-2-2) suggests he’s often around the mark without breaking through.
