Comments

Proven at 1500m (2:1-1-0) and draws barrier 7 again, a gate from which he’s raced well historically (7–10: 10 starts, 3 wins). Latest run was 9th of 13 in a Istanbul 1600m GROUP 2 3UP F&M from barrier 12 carrying 60kg, but prior efforts included a 1500m Istanbul win and a 2000m win on GOOD/GOOD3. Back to 1500m after 38 days, with a solid jockey combo record (6:2-2-0), he has the setup to rebound.

Returns to Bursa where he’s 2 from 5 and draws well in barrier 3, with a notable 6:3-3-2 record from inside gates (1-3). Comes back sharply in trip by 900m after Istanbul staying runs, and reunites with a jockey he’s 2-from-3 with. Proven locally and well set up by the barrier and rider stats to run to his best.

On a short turnaround after a 2nd at Istanbul over 1400m (3UP COND, GOOD) seven days ago, drawn to advantage in barrier 1. Proven at the trip with a 1500m win on her card and has been consistently hitting the frame this prep. With a solid association with E. Çankaya (9:1-2-1), she profiles as a live chance.

Comments

Third-up and proven at Bursa, with a strong local record (2:1-1-0) and unbeaten at today’s track/distance (1:1-0-0). Won over 1600m at Istanbul two starts back, then was 5th over 1300m in a 3UP HCP 15; back toward a more suitable trip at 1500m. From barrier 4, that profile gives her genuine claims.

Consistent at this trip (7:0-1-2) and draws well in barrier 2. Recent form includes 3rd at Istanbul over 1200m on 17 Apr (59kg) behind Amazing Touch, and another 3rd over 1400m on 14 Mar from a wide gate. With M. Kaya aboard and a slight rise to 1500m, she profiles as a steady each-way type.

Fourth-up and on a 10-day turnaround, she comes off a 5th of 6 over 1400m at Izmir, drawing the rail and carrying 56kg behind Speedy Soul. Earlier this prep she was 4th of 15 over 1200m at Izmir, and her Izmir 1200m profile includes a prior win and a 2nd to Thunder Jest. Back to 1300m with barrier 6 looks a reasonable set-up to hold her form.
