Proven at Ankara with a strong (3:2-1-0) track record and unbeaten at 1200m, including a 2Y HCP win on 20 Jun over 1200m (SOFT) carrying 57kg. Last start 2nd at Ankara over 1300m from barrier 5, now drops back 100m and again draws well. Fourth-up and reunited with M.S. Çelik, his profile suits this setup.

Proven at Ankara with a strong record (track 3:2-1-0) and perfect at the trip (1200m 1:1-0), and the current jockey partnership has clicked (CurrentJockey 3:2-1-0). Last start 2nd at Ankara on 11 Aug over 1400m in 2Y COND from barrier 1 with 59kg, beaten narrowly by Time Call. Back to 1200m from barrier 4 looks a positive setup given his prior wins here.

On a short turnaround off Izmir 1400m where he finished 6th of 6, he now drops 200m and draws barrier 3. Prior to that he was a close 3rd at Kocaeli 1400m and owns a solid 1200m record (5:2-1-0), including an Izmir 1200m win with Hill Of Angels the runner-up. Back to 1200m from a softer gate looks a positive setup.

Returns to Ankara 5 days after a 4th of 5 over 1300m (TB) from barrier 4, and now draws the inside gate with a slight drop back to 1200m. His Ankara 1200m record is strong (track/distance 4:3-0-1), including two wins here in July, and he has performed from low barriers. Short turnaround but the setup suits, so a rebound at his preferred trip is feasible.

Fourth-up and drawn ideally in barrier 2, he returns to Ankara where he’s 1 from 3, including a 1400m 2Y MDN win on July 23 over O Bir Vahşi. Since then he’s placed 5th of 11 in a 1300m GROUP 1 2Y here (57kg) behind Haroldcooper and 6th of 9 at Istanbul over 1200m, and now drops 100m. Solid provincial record and a favourable gate give him a practical setup to hold his form.
