Ankara Race 8 - Race 8
FIRE OF VALERIA (5) draws barrier 1 and comes off a 2nd at Ankara over 1300m on 14 Jul, with MÜSLÜM ÇELİK aboard, and should be suited back to 1200m. YELLOW LION (3) is on a short turnaround after a 2nd at Ankara over 1300m on 21 Jul in 2Y COND3 and maps to hold form. COSE DELLA VITA (6) was 3rd on debut at Ankara over 1300m on 21 Jul and is second-up with a better barrier. DELICIAS TURCAS (4) has consistent Ankara juvenile form, including 3rd over 1400m on 9 Jul, and draws well in barrier 4.

Back to 1200m after a 5th of 5 over 1400m at Ankara five days ago, and he did place 3rd in a 2Y COND over this trip at Ankara on soft (55kg) on 18 Jun behind El Raton and Silüet. Holds a (Ankara, 1200) record of 2:0-0-1 and draws barrier 9, so a short turnaround and drop in trip look suitable.

Two-year-old by The Grey Gatsby out of Amalgame, trained by C.akgül. Drawn barrier 3 with G.kocakaya booked, this set-up gives a straightforward run style on debut.

Back seven days after a 2nd of 4 over 1300m at Ankara in 2Y COND3, splitting the field behind Beautiful Light under 54kg. Prior Ankara runs include 4th of 7 in a 2Y MDN over 1200m and two earlier 4ths, so the consistent provincial efforts read solid for this drop back to 1200m from barrier 8. Honest profile suggests he can be competitive again.

Consistent juvenile with three placings this season and solid Ankara figures (4:0-1-2), including a 3rd over 1400m here on 9 Jul in a 2Y MDN carrying 57kg. Drops back to 1200m from a short turnaround of 8 days and draws barrier 4, with Mehmet Akyavuz having ridden her to a 4th here two starts back in 2Y FILLIES COND 5. Profile suggests she can be around the mark again.

Draws barrier 1 after a career-best 2nd at Ankara over 1300m 14 days ago with Müslüm Çelik up, and the pair already have a (2:0-1-0) record together. Consistent this season (7:0-1-2) and twice placed from low draws, so the inside gate looks a positive. Honest chance to hold a spot and figure late back to 1200m.

Second-up after a debut 3rd at Ankara over 1300m in a 2Y COND1, beaten 0L behind Little North with Eternal Wolf 2nd. Drops 100m and draws barrier 7 after jumping from 11, which could aid positioning. With race experience at the track and setup tweaks, looks a genuine contender to progress.

Draws barrier 2 after a midfield 4th at Ankara over 1300m in a 2Y MDN FILLIES, having raced wide from barrier 10. Earlier placed 3rd of 5 over 1000m at Ankara on good ground, and now drops back 100m. With solid recent Ankara runs and a favourable gate, a competitive showing is within reach.

Placed 3rd of 4 at Kocaeli over 1100m on 23 Jun (51kg) behind Dragon Victory and Crimson Power, then finished 7th of 7 over 1200m there on 30 Jun in 2YF MDN. Returns after 28 days with barrier 5 and carries form that suggests short-trip experience but still searching for a breakthrough.

Debuted 22 days ago at Bursa over 1200m in a 2YF COND, boxing on for 3rd of 10 behind Wolf Women and Arcane Sovereign with 57kg. Second-up here from barrier 6 (out from 2) and sticks to the trip, so natural improvement would see her competitive.
