Istanbul Race 7

Race 7

Prize Money: -

HENNAS SPOON (4) Fresh today. Looked good when 3rd last start at the track and gets a favourable draw. Jockey Vedat Abi̇ş is a strong choice aboard and showing consistent performance in races. Appears as a winning threat. DONE THIS (2) Game effort to win narrowly last run at the track but up in weight. Has been a model of consistency this campaign. Can get the job done. PRENS EGE (5) Fresh after a break. Average at best when 7th last run at the track but has the ideal draw. GöKhan Kocakaya rates highly aboard. One of the major players. ŞAFAKATEŞ (7) Secured the win by a slim margin last start at Adana but back in trip. Looks a great place bet. Something for the Multiples: ŞAFAKATEŞ (7)

Odds of $5.50 and unimpressive effort when 6th last run here and down in trip. Carrying more weight than last time. Making up the numbers.

Fought on gamely when winning last run here but has to cope with a weight increase. Very competitive this campaign. One of the value chances in this race.

Backing up quickly. At $91.00 only fair when 10th last run at this venue and will have to carry more weight. Hard to recommend.

First up from a break. In the money when 3rd last start at this venue and promising career start. Vedat Abi̇ş is a strong choice aboard. Should give this a shake.

First up after a break. Was $4.80 and clearly outclassed when 7th last run at this venue but drawn beautifully. Great to see jockey GöKhan Kocakaya taking the ride. Price in this race is tempting to get involved.
