Ankara Race 3

Race 3

Prize Money: -

ANGLE RISING (3) appeals most off back-to-back wins and a recent 1800m success, with solid stats from similar barriers and a minor placing at the trip. NINE TREES (2) is the danger after winning 2 of his last 3 and thriving at Ankara, though his 2000m record is less convincing. MAXIMAND (5) has a clear 2000m peak here and maps to get every chance from a low draw but recent 2100m efforts were only fair. ICE DROPS (4) is in the mix after a last-start 2nd at 2100m, yet overall form is patchy. Lean ANGLE RISING (3) in a small field.

Comments

Draws better with barrier 3 after jumping from 6 last time. Latest run was 5th of 10 over 2000m at Kocaeli on 27 Oct on heavy ground, and prior was 7th of 8 at this track and trip on 3 Oct. From similar inside barriers (1-3) he’s (8:0-4-1), suggesting a softer gate helps him hold a spot. Stays in the same grade and the improved draw gives him a chance to settle and find a finish.

Comments

Won 2 of last 3 and draws markedly better, moving from barrier 10 to 1. Latest scored over 1500m at Istanbul on 30 Oct, and earlier was 4th of 8 over 2000m at Ankara. Strong rapport with Müs. Çelik for T.O. Kara (with this jockey and trainer: 5:3-1-1) underpins the setup. Solid credentials to hold a spot in the finish at this trip.

Comes in off a 1st of 7 over 1800m at Adana on 1 Nov and has won 2 of last 3. Steps to 2000m with Serh. Çelik up, and the Çelik/Ke. Yilmaz combo is (5:2-0-1). Stays in the same grade and profiles as a solid chance to hold form.

Comments

Back to 2000m after a solid 2nd of 7 over 2100m at Ankara on 22 Oct, and stays at the same track with M. Keskin aboard. That run suggests the trip holds no fears, and a small field should give every chance to build on it. Ice Drops profiles as a genuine contender off that latest effort.

Winner over 2000m at Ankara on 25 Aug, then finished 5th of 7 over 2100m here on 22 Oct. Draws better from barrier 2 after jumping from 5 last time. Maximand gets back to 2000m at the same track and looks suited to bounce back.
