CAPTIVATING (7) brings strong local credentials after winning at Elazig over 2000m on 22 Jun (3Y COND, GOOD) carrying 61kg and now drops to 55.5kg with a better barrier (3 from 7) and only a 100m trim in trip. ROYALGUARD (4) is flying with back-to-back wins at Diyarbakir 1700m on 13 Jun and Sanliurfa 2000m on 8 Jun (GOOD), and is 2/2 on good ground. VAN KALESI (5) has proven 1900m/Elazig credentials, winning here on 29 Apr and placing over 2000m on 13 May, forgiving the 8th at 1700m last time. SMALL BURGAZ (1) scored here over 1200m on 29 Jun and is second-up on a 7‑day turnaround, but rises 700m in trip and to 61.5kg.

Comments

Fresh off a 1200m Elazig win on 29 Jun in a 3Y HCP under 59.5kg, backing up on a 7‑day turnaround second‑up. Steps up 700m to 1900m (0:0-0-0 at the trip) and rises to 61.5kg, but draws barrier 4. Strong rapport with N.altin (5:3-1-1) and the Altin pairing (1:1-0-0) is a plus, with the trip the key query.

Ultra-consistent with five straight placings, latest 2nd at Sanliurfa over 1800m on 15 Jun in a 16-runner race behind Chain Breaker. Draws barrier 5 and owns a strong record from middle gates (4-6: 4:2-1-0), and with 60.5kg looks likely to be around the finish again.

From barrier 1 on a 7-day turnaround, he rises 700m to 1900m and drops to 59kg, with a handy inside‑barrier record (1–3:14:2-3-4). Elazig stats are solid (18:2-7-4) and recent runs include a 2nd over 1500m on 22 Jun behind Skydive plus a 3rd at 2000m, suggesting the trip should suit.

Arrives in form with wins at Diyarbakir 1700m on 13 Jun (8 runners, beat My Moon) and Sanliurfa 2000m on 8 Jun (13 runners, beat Sert Rüzgar), and an overall record of (6:3-0-1). Steps 200m in trip here and goes from barrier 8 with 57.5kg after 23 days between runs, which reads as a solid platform to figure again.

Won twice at Elazig this prep, including over 1900m on 29 Apr (beat Night King) and an 1800m 3Y HCP on 20 May (from King Ancestor). Latest run was 8th of 8 at Diyarbakir over 1700m on 13 Jun; rises 200m, draws barrier 2 with 57.5kg, and the rider has a 4:1-1 record, so a return to the longer trip looks suitable.

Back up to 1900m, a trip where he’s 2:0-1-1, after finishing 5th at Elazig over 1600m on soft on May 6. Previously ran 3rd at Elazig 1900m on good with 60.5kg behind Van Kalesi and Night King, and now drops to 56kg. With a consistent overall profile (15:1-6-6), he looks capable of another competitive showing.

Won at Elazig on 22 Jun over 2000m (3Y COND) carrying 61kg from barrier 7 on Good, beating Thon Khitchiba. Drops 5.5kg to 55.5 and draws barrier 3, with a perfect track record (1:1-0-0) and a handy 1900m record (2:1-0-1). With the same rider and an overall (7:2-1-2) profile, should be competitive.

Comes off a 6th of 8 at Diyarbakir over 2000m on 27 Jun, with Seek And Destroy the winner. Prior to that ran 2nd in an 11-runner 3Y HCP at Elazig over 2000m on 17 Jun carrying 55kg, behind Legandary Warrior. With a 1900m record of (3:1-0-0) and overall (14:1-1-1), he looks capable if reproducing that Elazig effort.
