Ankara Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: -

KUKULA (4) appeals second-up after a debut 2nd over 1200m at Adana 11 days ago and moves to 1400m from a softer barrier 5. AFAMIA (3) brings the strongest recent Ankara line, runner-up in a 2Y MDN over 1600m on 13 Aug before a 1300m Adana 3rd; the slight rise to 1400m suits. MEYDAN OKU (1) has consistent Ankara juvenile form including a 2nd over 1200m on 30 Jul and now steps up 200m; returns to rider MEYDAN OKU (1)’s current jockey association shown by a prior 2nd. REGISTA (7) draws barrier 1 and wasn’t far off in a small 1400m Ankara field last time, which can map him handier.

Backs up 11 days after a 4th of 6 at Istanbul over 1200m (2Y COND5) and now rises 200m. Earlier ran 2nd at Ankara over 1200m on good going with today’s rider aboard, and owns a consistent juvenile profile including a 3rd in a 2Y COND at Ankara. Carries 59kg here, up 5kg from last start, but drawn barrier 7 where he has previously placed.

Comments

On a short turnaround after finishing 6th of 11 over 1300m at Istanbul eight days ago in 2Y MDN, and now comes back up 100m to 1400m. Earlier in the prep he twice ran 2nd at Istanbul, including over 1400m behind Sandokan, and his 1400m record reads (2:0-1-0). With 59kg and barrier 4, a return to this trip looks suitable for a competitive showing.

Placed in both runs this season, including a 2nd at Ankara over 1600m in a 2Y MDN on 13 Aug under 57kg behind Son Of Dragon. Backed that up 11 days ago with a 3rd at Adana over 1300m in TB grade, and now rises 2kg to 57kg from barrier 8. Consistent of late and holds genuine place claims on current form.

Debuted 11 days ago at Adana over 1200m (TB) and ran 2nd of 9 under 57kg on Good, splitting Lady Brown and the rest. Second-up here from barrier 5 after jumping from 8 last time, and steps up 200m which could suit. Solid foundation to build on.

On a short turnaround after finishing 6th of 11 in a 2Y MDN over 1300m at Istanbul eight days ago behind Run For Göktuğ, carrying 57kg. Fourth-up now and drops 100m, with a barrier shift from 2 to 6; overall form includes two prior 5ths over 1100m on good ground. Needs to lift, but the sharper trip could help.

Third-up and drawn barrier 1, he returns to the same track and 1400m after finishing 5th of 6 at Ankara (57kg) last time on Good ground. That followed a 9th of 10 over 1300m in a 2Y COND1, so the rise to 1400m and soft gate could help him settle and improve.

Comments

Returns from a 58-day freshen with a favourable barrier 3 and a 2kg drop to 55kg. Early prep showed promise with a 2nd at Adana 1100m on Soft and a 3rd in a 2Y MDN at Ankara 1200m, and has since posted two 4ths at Ankara. Inside draw and lighter weight can help her hold a handy spot and give a competitive account.
