Debuted 17 days ago at Kocaeli and won over 1200m, beating Zey Zey, and now returns second-up. Rises 200m in trip and draws the inside barrier after jumping from 7 last time, which could aid a handy run. Progressive profile and the setup looks suitable for another forward showing.

Debut winner at Kocaeli over 1000m, scoring from barrier 3 under 57kg on a GOOD track, and now resumes first-up after 96 days. Steps up 400m and draws well again in gate 3, with a clean (1:1-0-0) profile at the track. Progressive type who can measure up to the new trip.

Back up on a short 5-day turnaround after a close 3rd at Kocaeli over 1200m in a 2Y MDN, drawn wide there but now improves to barrier 4. Steps to 1400m (1:0-0-0 at the trip) with 58kg again, and reunites with Yiğitcan Gökçe, who was aboard for that placing. Consistent this prep and the softer gate should give every chance to hold a forward spot and finish off.

Draws much better in barrier 2 after debuting from 9 at Kocaeli over 1100m in a 2Y COND, and now rises 300m in trip. Brings the same rider-trainer combination second-up after a 40-day gap. With natural improvement, the softer gate could help him settle and finish closer.
