Istanbul Race 5 - Mendip
ELITE TOUCH (5) sets the standard second-up after a debut 2nd at Istanbul on 14 Jun over 1000m (11 starters) on GOOD carrying 55kg; the rise to 1200m suits. MAJESTUOSA (6) returns after 76 days and was 2nd at Ankara on 18 Apr over 900m on SOFT from barrier 1; up 300m and draws the inside again. PASSACAGLIA (7) was 4th here over 1000m on 24 May before 6th of 8 at 1200m on 19 Jun; third-up can improve. GOLDEN CHAMPION (3) is third-up, with a 3rd here over 800m on 17 Apr (GOOD) before finishing 8th of 8 at 1200m on 19 Jun.

Third-up after finishing 8th of 8 at Istanbul over 1200m on 19 Jun in 2Y company from barrier 3 under 57kg, behind Pyrohan. Earlier ran 3rd of 7 over 800m at Istanbul on Good (17 Apr) with 57kg, behind Victory Of Tomo and Speed Queen.

Debuted with a close 2nd of 11 at Istanbul over 1000m on 14 Jun (55kg, barrier 6), chasing home Harun Reis on a Good track. Second-up after 19 days and rises 200m, with H.karataş remaining aboard. Solid platform to build on.

Debuted at Ankara on 18 Apr, finishing 2nd of 8 over 900m on soft behind Şireoğlu from barrier 1. Returns second-up after 76 days, draws the inside gate again, and steps up 300m in trip under V.abiş for H.sunkar. With a (1:0-1-0) profile, a repeat of that debut effort would keep her in the mix.

Third-up and staying at 1200m after finishing 6th of 8 at Istanbul on 19 Jun in a 2Y race from barrier 5, with Pyrohan scoring. Debut effort was 4th of 10 over 1000m on Good at Istanbul on 24 May. With that grounding, a better showing at this trip is within reach.

Fourth-up after three runs; last start at Istanbul on 17 Jun over 1100m in 2Y MDN FILLIES finished 7th of 8 carrying 57kg from barrier 7 behind Kraliçe Bade. Draws barrier 2 now, and earlier efforts of 5th of 7 at 1000m and 4th of 8 at 900m suggest the softer draw can help find a bit more.
