Istanbul Race 5 - Race 5
NISAM (14) maps well at 1300m and brings the best recent Istanbul reference, having finished 2nd over this trip on 6 Jun before handy 4ths at 1400m and 1600m; draws barrier 6 with M. Kaya aboard. YÜREK ŞAH (6) is third‑up and returns to 1300m after a 3rd at Istanbul over this distance on 2 Aug; softer draw in 4 and carries 53kg last time out form lines. AFRIKA SULTANI (7) was a solid 5th of 15 at 1200m here on 7 Aug from the outside gate and now draws barrier 5. İZOTOP (13) resumes off a strong 2nd of 15 at Istanbul 1200m on heavy back on 22 May and gets an inside draw in 3.

Returns 11 days after finishing 9th of 12 in a 1500m 3Y MDN at Kocaeli when drawn the rail, and now faces a wide barrier 14. Prior Istanbul efforts included a solid 4th of 9 over 1400m on GOOD going. The wide draw and drop back 200m ask for a tidy map, but prior 1400m run suggests he can be competitive with the right run.

Third-up on a short turnaround, having finished 10th of 13 over 1500m at Istanbul eight days ago after drawing barrier 10. Drops 200m and nudges one gate better to barrier 9, with 57kg again, and both prior runs this prep were on GOOD ground. Needs to lift on exposed Istanbul record (3:0-0-0), but the setup tweaks could help.

On a short turnaround after finishing 7th of 14 over 1500m at Istanbul on 16 Aug, with Uğur Levent aboard for the first time. Draws wider here (barrier 13 after barrier 3) and drops back 200m, with Istanbul figures of (5:0-0-0) and no placings at 1300m from one try. Needs to lift to improve that local record.

On a short turnaround after finishing 11th of 13 over 1500m at Istanbul eight days ago from barrier 11. Prior run was more encouraging when 5th of 15 over 1200m at Istanbul, and he comes back 200m with a better draw in 7 and Müs.Çelik taking over. Fourth-up now and looking for improvement back to the shorter trip.

Second-up after an 8th of 14 at Bursa (Aug 14, 1200m, 57kg) when drawn 10, and now nudges up 100m. Returns to Istanbul where he had a prior run at 1300m and keeps M A Aydin; barrier 12 makes the map trickier. Scope to improve with added fitness, but the draw demands a clean jump.

Third-up and on a short turnaround, he backs up off an Istanbul 1500m run 8 days ago when 6th of 14 from barrier 1 carrying 53kg behind Arden Tuna. His prior effort at Istanbul 1300m reads well—3rd of 10 from barrier 8 with 57kg on GOOD—so the slight drop back to 1300m and a better draw in barrier 4 look suitable.

Draws barrier 1 and drops back 200m after an 11-day turnaround from a 1500m 3Y MDN at Kocaeli. Has raced four times this prep at Istanbul/Kocaeli without a placing, including 7th of 9 over 1300m at Istanbul on good ground. Inside draw and the shorter trip could help him settle closer and find improvement.

Back on a short turnaround after finishing 11th of 12 in a 3Y MDN over 1300m at Bursa seven days ago from the inside draw. Earlier in the prep he was 6th of 12 at Kocaeli over 1400m and 8th of 12 over 1200m, so the overall profile is steady without a peak yet. Drawn barrier 2 and sticking to the 1300m, he’ll need to lift to get into the finish.

First-up after 3 months and draws barrier 3, he returns to the scene of his debut second at Istanbul over 1200m on heavy, carrying 57kg. That run came from barrier 4 in a 15-runner field and he finished behind Yüksek Cazibe. Slightly up in trip today, he maps to get a soft run and can run well fresh again.
