Consistent at Istanbul with 2 seconds from 2 runs, and now third-up from a soft draw in barrier 2. Runner-up over 1600m here on 17 Jul carrying 57kg, splitting Afrika Ateşi and the rest; prior 2nd over 1300m in a 3Y COND from the inside gate. Well placed to hold form with the barrier advantage and slight drop back to 1500m.

Second-up after a single Istanbul run 12 days ago over 1300m, where he finished 7th of 11 from barrier 4. Drops back 200m to 1100m and draws barrier 3, which could help him settle handier under 57kg. A cleaner jump and the shorter trip may see improvement at this stage of the prep.

Third-up on a short 7-day turnaround after finishing 11th of 15 over 1200m at Istanbul on good going. Earlier was 10th of 14 over 1300m in 3Y COND there carrying 57kg, and now draws barrier 4 with 300m rise in trip. Needs to lift on exposed figures but the softer draw and distance rise offer some scope for improvement.

Second-up and on a short 7-day turnaround after finishing 13th of 15 over 1200m at Istanbul (GOOD) from barrier 12 carrying 57kg. Steps up 300m in trip and draws barrier 10, with B.akçay taking over from Erhan Aktuğ. Needs to lift on exposed Istanbul form but the quick backup and slight barrier improvement could help.

Second-up after a debut 2nd at Istanbul over 1300m (GOOD) 12 days ago, beaten a negligible margin under 57kg from barrier 2. Draws the rail this time and rises 200m, with Akin Sözen sticking after that promising effort. Well placed to build on that solid start to the prep.

Resumes after 3 months and returns as a first-up 3yo, now drawn barrier 6 after debuting from 10 at Ankara over 1100m. That debut resulted in 6th of 10 behind Hürtayfa carrying 57kg, and he rises 400m in trip today which may suit. With a better gate and added experience, he can take a step forward.

Steps up 300m in trip and draws wider from barrier 11 after barrier 5 last time; retains H. Çizik. Respectable latest effort suggests he can be competitive with natural improvement.

Second-up after a single Istanbul run 12 days ago over 1300m when 7th of 10 from barrier 10. Draws a touch better in gate 8 and steps to 1500m, which could help at this stage of the prep. Keep in mind the rider change and stable switch from that debut effort.

On a short 7-day turnaround and fourth-up, he draws wide in barrier 13 with a 300m rise to 1500m from recent 1200m runs. Istanbul form reads 14th of 15 last week over 1200m (GOOD) and previously 12th of 12 at the same track/trip, both at 57kg. Needs to lift but the step up in distance offers a different scenario.

Consistent this prep with 2nds at Izmir 1200m (57kg) and Ankara 1200m MDN (59kg), and a solid 3rd at Istanbul 1400m before a 7th over 1200m a week ago. On a short turnaround and steps up 300m, with Nevzat Avci back aboard from a middle-to-wide barrier 12. Proven competitive at 1400–1600m at Istanbul, so the extra trip looks a positive.

Made a strong debut at Istanbul over 1200m in a 3Y FILLIES COND, finishing 2nd of 10 behind Gökçepinar with 57kg from barrier 7. Second-up here after 26 days with an improved draw to barrier 5 and stepping 300m in trip, and retains the same jockey-trainer combination that produced that placing. Well set to build on that promising first run.
