1900m - 2800m

Comments

Draws barrier 1 and comes back sharply in trip after a 4th over 2800m at Ankara six days ago, having run 2nd here at 1900m on 24 Jul in a 3UP COND carrying 60kg behind Noble Strength. He owns a solid 1900m record (13:2-2-3) and has placed in 5 of 6 at Istanbul, with a track-distance second from his lone try. On a short turnaround with the same 60kg, his recent consistency suggests he can be competitive again.

Proven at Istanbul with a solid (8:3-2-1) track record and draws well in barrier 5, returning from a 43‑day freshen. Won over 2100m at Istanbul on 3 Jun (GOOD) carrying 57.5kg, then was 4th of 6 over 2100m here on 25 Jun behind Kocavezir.

Proven at 1900m with a solid (29:4-7-5) record and has a placing from two tries at Istanbul 1900, drawing favourably in barrier 3.

Comments

Back to 1900m suits given a (3:1-0-0) record at the trip and a favourable move to barrier 4. Comes here 12 days after a 5th of 8 over 2400m at Istanbul, and prior to that was 4th of 8 at 2000m, both on good ground. With solid Istanbul figures (11:1-2-0), this setup looks workable for a competitive showing.

Comments

Second-up and backing up on a 6‑day short turnaround after finishing 4th over 1900m at Ankara, and he again sticks to that trip where he’s twice been runner‑up from five attempts. Draws barrier 2, which suits given a positive barrier record (7:2-2-0) from inside gates. Likely to run well again at the journey from a soft draw.
