Comments

Backs up on a 7‑day turnaround after a 2nd at Istanbul over 1900m on 14 Jun, carrying 58kg behind Enterprising Rock. Steps 300m in trip and has already run 2nd at 2200m at Ankara on 23 May (track/distance record: 1:0-1-0). Consistent overall (10:1-3-0) and the extra ground looks within his scope.

Consistent without winning (16:0-5-1), and two starts back ran 2nd at Adana over 2000m on a Soft track from barrier 13 behind Sun Of The Göksu. Backing up after seven days and rises 300m to 2200m, having had only one run at the trip to date. Can be competitive if reproducing that recent placing.

Placed 2nd of 14 at Adana over 1300m on 31 May behind Syrena carrying 56.5kg on Good. Forgive the latest 11th of 14 at Ankara over 1300m from barrier 10, and today draws barrier 1 with a 1-from-4 record when drawn 1–3. Inside gate can help her find a better run and put her back in the mix.

Comments

Solid profile this season (7:1-1-2) and the M A Solmaz partnership reads well (4:1-1-1). Last start 5th of 7 at Ankara over 2000m on good with 59kg, but earlier Adana form includes a 1400m win and a 2000m placing; from barrier 3, a repeat of that prior form brings this into play.

Draws barrier 2 and steps up 300m to 2200 after finishing 7th of 9 at Ankara over 1900m on 30 May, a race won by Mir Emre. Previously was 6th of 7 at Ankara over 2200m on soft on 23 May (56kg), but did win over 2000m at Istanbul on 4 April from Game Saver; the kinder draw gives him a chance to build on that earlier peak.

Second-up after a solid 4th of 13 in a 3Y HCP at Ankara over 1400m on 9 Jun, behind For Freedom. Earlier this year he won over 1900m at Adana on 17 Jan, defeating Lion Icardi. Faces a significant 800m distance change here and, with that recent run under the belt, looks competitive.
