Comments

Draws barrier 1 and has a solid low‑draw profile (barriers 1–3: 6:3-0-1). Steps up 500m to 2000m, a trip where he’s 1-from-2 and (Istanbul, 2000) reads (2:1-0-0). Last start 4th at Istanbul over 1500m on Jun 12 carrying 61kg from barrier 7 behind Live Your Freedom; the inside gate and proven distance record give him claims to improve.

Proven at this track (4:1-1-1) and overall consistent (11:2-4-1). Was 8th of 9 at Istanbul over 2200m on 27 May (GOOD) behind Kadıköy Boğası, and now drops 200m after a 2nd at 2000m two starts back. Back under A.Çelik, with whom he’s 2:1-1-0, he looks set to be competitive at this trip.

Won at Istanbul over 2100m on May 24 carrying 61kg, defeating Another Moment, and also scored at Istanbul over 2000m on Apr 26 with 50.5kg. The overall record (12:2-1-2), 2000m stats (4:1-0-0) and solid Istanbul returns (10:2-1-1) read well, and barrier 3 should give a straightforward run.

Arrives off a last-start win at Istanbul over 1500m on 7 Jun, carrying 61kg from barrier 3 on GOOD with Görkem Özçelik, beating Crackajack. Steps up 500m to 2000m where the horse has a track-distance placing (1:0-0-1), having finished 3rd here on 4 Apr behind Tercal Nihat and Game Saver. Rider combination is 1:1-0-0, and the set-up looks within range.

Won two runs back at Ankara over 1900m on 21 May, carrying 58kg and beating Midnight Mirage in an 11-runner race. Last start he was 6th of 7 over 1900m at Ankara on good with 56kg behind Rite Of Spring. Mixed recent results, but that 1900m win at the track shows he has the ability if he clicks back into it.

Comments

On a short turnaround after finishing 4th at Istanbul over 1600m in a 3Y HCP on Jun 17 carrying 59kg, behind Şeker Aslan. Draws barrier 4 and steps to 2000m, a trip where he’s yet to place (2:0-0-0), though his Istanbul record is solid enough (7:0-2-1); a measured chance if he sees out the extra ground.
