BAKA BABA (3) Game effort to win narrowly last time at Istanbul and proven performer at this distance. Vedat Abi̇ş is a plus. Has been a model of consistency this preparation. Expect to go close.

Won narrowly last time at Istanbul and ideal trip as proven previously. Very competitive this preparation. Vedat Abi̇ş is a crucial engagement. Suited against these.

Started at $67.00 and disappointing display when 8th last time around here but has drawn to do little work. Hard to see this being good enough.

At $7.00 below par when 4th last start at the track but drawn nicely. K TokaçOğLu takes the reins today and going over extra ground. Going well this campaign. Looks a nice proposition.
