Comments

Strong Istanbul record (5:1-3-0) and draws well in barrier 2. Recent 1500m win here in August with 59kg was followed by a close 2nd over 1200m in September, and he now drops back 200m from a 1500m run 22 days ago. Well placed at the trip he’s handled, with a handy low draw to settle prominently.

Back on a short turnaround after a 2nd at Istanbul over 1300m in 3Y HCP 15, matching today’s track and trip, with 57.5kg from barrier 3. Holds a solid local profile (track 7:1-2-1) and has already placed at the track and distance (1:0-1-0), while the Kaya/Karakuş combo mirrors that recent run. Drawn 6 today with 57.5kg, he looks set to hold form and be competitive again.

Comments

Second-up on a short turnaround and returns to a trip and track where he’s 1 from 2, including a 1300m Istanbul win in July (3Y COND) with H Karataş. Last week he was 5th of 10 over 1300m here in a 3Y HCP 15 from barrier 5 with 54.5kg behind Çerkes Enver, and he draws slightly better in 4 today. Proven with the jockey-trainer combo and suited back to this set-up, he can run well.

First-up after 4 months, he returns to Istanbul where he’s 1:1-0-0 at 1300m and has a strong overall track record (3:1-1-1). Last seen winning here over 1300m from barrier 2, and he again draws well in 3 with A.yildiz, who is 1:1-0-0 on him. Proven at the track and trip, he maps for another solid showing fresh.

Comments

Proven at the track and trip with a 1300m maiden win at Istanbul three starts back, and is fourth-up into this. Last two runs were a 3rd over 1400m (GOOD3) from barrier 13 in 3Y COND 5, then 5th over 1600m in AR; the drop back 300m to 1300 looks a suitable move. From barrier 5 with 57kg, he maps to get his chance to hold a spot and run to his solid track/distance record.

Draws barrier 1 and drops back 200m after finishing 6th of 11 over 1500m at Istanbul 22 days ago in AR company. Earlier in the prep he posted back-to-back 2nds at Istanbul over 1400m, including behind Özatatmar and Erçetin. Inside draw could help him settle handier and find a consistent finish back at this trip.
