Comments

Comes off a 2400m Istanbul win on 30 Aug (3Y G 2) carrying 58kg, and now drops 800m in trip with 60kg from barrier 3. Prior Ankara run at 1600m was a 3rd in a 5-runner 3Y COND, and he’s (1:0-0-1) at the mile. Short turnaround but draws well and his recent form reads solid enough to give this a shake.

Draws barrier 1 and rises to 58kg after a 1900m Istanbul run 24 days ago when 5th of 8. Earlier this prep he chased home Rabovo over 2200m at Istanbul (2nd) and has a solid CurrentTrack record (9:1-2-2). With the inside draw and proven track credentials, he profiles to run well at the trip drop.

Comes off a 1600m Istanbul win 14 days ago (TB, 9 runners) from barrier 9, beating Touch The Cloud, and now draws barrier 7. Proven at the track (12:3-1-1) and distance (2:1-0-0), with strong rapport with the rider (CurrentJockey 7:3-1-1). Up 6kg to 58kg but the profile suggests he can hold form.

Comments

In strong current form this season (2:1-1) and thrives at this track (14:6-2-1), backing up a 1500m Istanbul win on 9 Aug before a close 2nd there on 21 Aug to Calvados. Drops to 58kg from 60kg and draws barrier 4 where he has a solid record, with a positive jockey/trainer combo (3:1-1-1). Profiles as a reliable chance back around this trip despite a modest 1600m record to date.

Comments

Returns to 1600m with a 3kg rise to 58kg and draws barrier 5, having finished 8th of 8 over 1300m at Ankara 20 days ago. Prior Istanbul run was a sound 4th of 7 over 1500m in 3Y COND behind Jazz Runner. Overall figures at the track and trip are lean, so a measured hope if the step up in distance suits.

Solid at Istanbul over 1600m last start, running 3rd in TB grade behind Hidan and Touch The Cloud, and now draws barrier 2. Returns to 58kg after carrying 52kg there, but owns a handy Istanbul record (5:1-2-1) and has placed at the trip and track-distance. Well set up from the draw to run to his consistent profile.

Comes off a 1900m Istanbul win 17 days ago in 3Y COND 7 carrying 58kg, beating Prandello, and now drops 300m in trip from that run. Istanbul record is solid (12:3-3-1), and barrier 6 aligns with a fair gate profile (barriers 4-6: 4:0-1-1). With the recent confidence boost and suitable setup, he looks ready to hold form.
