Consistent this season (4:2-1-1) and comes here 16 days after a runner-up at Izmir over 1200m on 27 Jun, carrying 58kg from barrier 4 behind Gümbür Baba in a 7-runner field. Earlier wins came at Izmir over 1200m on 23 May (from Rüzgar İzi) and 1000m on 30 Apr (from Prenses Berrin). Barrier stats from wider draws are a positive (7–10: 1:1-0-0), so she profiles to run well again.

Consistent at Istanbul this prep (7:0-2-3), including back-to-back seconds over 1200m in May. Latest effort was 6th of 6 at 1200m, but prior ran 3rd in a 3Y COND FILLIES and 4th at 1300m from barrier 9 on Good. Stepping to 1300m again with an improved barrier 2 and Müs.çelik aboard, a competitive showing looks within reach.

Arrives off a solid patch of form, winning at Izmir (1200m) before a 4th at Bursa over 1300m in a 3Y COND HCP carrying 58kg from barrier 5 behind Rosican. Earlier seconds at Bursa and Kocaeli (both 1200m) add depth to the profile, and the draw improves to barrier 3, with low gates having produced 2 placings from 2. With a this-season record of (7:1-3-1), she profiles as a consistent chance.

Third-up and already a 1200m Istanbul winner this season, scoring on heavy on 22 May (15 runners) with 57kg from barrier 13, beating Can Şehriban. Latest 17 Jun at Istanbul over 1200m in 3Y COND FILLIES, finished 5th of 5 on good with 54kg from barrier 3. Holds a (Istanbul:2:1-0-0) profile and now draws barrier 5 with A.kurşun, so an improvement wouldn’t surprise.

On a short turnaround after finishing 4th of 13 in a 3YF MDN at Istanbul over 1200m on 5 Jul, behind Ballibike, from barrier 5 carrying 55kg. Also 4th of 15 here over 1200m on heavy on 22 May with S. Yazıcıoğlu aboard. Draws the inside barrier and is fourth-up, which reads as a sound setup to hold that form.
