Istanbul Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: -

NORTH BRIDE (8) sets the standard off 2nd and 3rd over 1200m here on good ground and maps to hold a handy spot from barrier 2 stepping to 1300m. QUEEN MIHRI (10) appeals as the main danger with a 2nd at this track and trip on good going and the inside draw to stalk the speed. GRAVITAS (3) is in the mix after a 2nd over 1400m here earlier in the season and a sound 4th last start, and the slight drop in trip suits. ZERYA (12) can run on for a share after a 3rd on soft when second up looms, but the proven Istanbul 1200m form of NORTH BRIDE (8) gets the nod.

Comments

Two-year-old filly who comes off a 7th of 10 over 1400m at Ankara on 24 Oct on soft ground. Drops back to 1300m on a good track and keeps F.S.M. Sansar. Setup looks more suitable and a cleaner run could see improvement.

Second up after a 1300m run at Istanbul on 21 Aug, finishing 6th of 8 on good ground. Stays at 1300m with E. Aktuğ riding for T. Taşar. Scope to improve with that experience and the same track conditions.

Comments

Draws better here, moving from barrier 9 to 6, which should help at 1300m. Last start at Istanbul over 1400m on GOOD ground produced a solid 4th of 9. With A. Yildiz riding for C. Turan, this looks a reasonable set-up to hold position in a similar scenario.

Third up and staying at Istanbul after finishing 5th of 8 over 1200m on 7 Oct on GOOD. Steps to 1300m, which could suit this preparation. H. Çizik sticks, and the stable is consistent at this venue. Fair chance to improve with race fitness building.

Second up and drops to 53kg with a better draw from barrier 4. Last start was 8th of 8 over 1400m at Istanbul on 25 Oct on soft ground. Back to 1300m on good ground could help, and the improved map and weight give Marnis a chance to progress.

Draws better in to barrier 3 after jumping from 6 last time, which could help secure a handier spot. Has matched this 1300m at Istanbul twice on GOOD, finishing 5th of 9 on 11 Oct then 6th of 10 on 1 Nov. With that setup and a kinder gate, Pillow Dance has a chance to hold position in the midfield and be competitive late.

Runner-up over 1300m at Istanbul on 11 Oct on GOOD going reads well for this set-up. Followed that with a 4th of 8 at Kocaeli over 1400m on HEAVY, so the return to GOOD ground at this track looks a plus. With Ö. Yildirim booked, Queen Mihri brings the right profile to be competitive back to 1300m.

Second up after finishing 7th of 7 over 1400m on GOOD at Istanbul on 28 Oct, and now cuts back to 1300m. G. Özçelik sticks with Twister Blue for Hak. Polat. Needs to show improvement but the slight drop in trip can help consolidate.

Second up after a 3rd of 7 over 1400m at Istanbul on 25 Oct on soft ground, and now comes back to 1300m on good. Retains A. Kurşun and stays at the same track, which keeps the set-up familiar. Honest last run suggests she can hold her form in this.
