Istanbul Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: -

CAPE COD (5) Nice run when 3rd last time around here and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Vedat Abi̇ş is a smart booking. Good chance in this event. İPHIKLOS (1) Managed to come out on top by the slightest of margins last start around here and going back up in distance. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. GOLD FLOWER (6) Won narrowly last start at the track and has a good draw. Jockey Ahmet çEli̇K is a plus. Running with confidence this campaign. Among better hopes. SPLENDID (4) In the money when 3rd last time around here and drawn beautifully. Has run into the money at every start this preparation and back over more ground. Solid place bet prospects.

Was fighting out the finish when winning last start at this venue and returns to an increased distance. Jockey Ayhan KurşUn and trainer Hali̇L Kabukci form a proven partnership. Great chance.
