Istanbul Race 6

Race 6

Prize Money: -

BAHRAIN (1) brings sharp recent form, winning at Istanbul over 1300m before a 2nd over 1400m last start, and maps well back to 1200m. LAVENDER (3) was 3rd at Istanbul over 1400m last time and earlier ran 2nd over 1200m, so the drop in trip suits. MAKE A FIRE (4) chased BAHRAIN when 2nd over 1300m two back and has solid 1200m stats. MR CINO (5) comes off a 2nd over 1500m and owns two 1200m seconds, making him a consistent threat at this trip.
