Comes in on a short 15-day turnaround after back-to-back 1200m wins at Kocaeli, last time in 2Y COND carrying 58kg with Mehmet Fatih Kaya up, who is 2-from-2 on him. Returns to Istanbul where he’s 1-from-3, drawing barrier 2 after wider gates recently, and has a solid 1200m record (4:2-0-0). Well set up to hold form back at this track.

Back on a short turnaround after two 2nds at Istanbul over 1200m in August, including last time in a 2Y FILLIES COND 4 from barrier 3 carrying 57kg. Overall at 1200m she’s (3:1-2-0), with her win coming at Ankara two starts prior, and she draws barrier 5 here. Consistent at this trip and profile suggests she’ll be competitive again.

Early prep included a 2Y MDN win at Kocaeli over 1100m (GOOD) and a prior 2nd at 1000m, and he now drops 200m with barrier 4. Recent runs at 1300m-1400m were tougher, finishing 4th of 4 at Istanbul and 5th of 5 at Bursa, but he reunites with E. Bozdağ who rode his debut 2nd. Back to a sprint trip could suit if he recaptures that early speed.

Progressive 2YO with a recent 1300m Bursa win on GOOD going, leading home Gray Conqueror after drawing barrier 2. Prior runs include 2nd at 1300m Bursa and 3rd in a 2Y MDN at 1200m from a wide gate, so today’s inside draw (barrier 1) is a plus with only a slight step back to 1200m. Solid, consistent profile suggests she can run well again.

Back on a short turnaround (6 days) after finishing 5th of 5 over 1300m at Ankara, and now drops 100m which suits given a 1200m record of (3:1-1-0). Prior Ankara 1200m runs include a win on 30 Jul (55kg) and a 4th in 2Y COND on 6 Aug (57kg) behind Kinzhal. From barrier 3 with 60kg listed, the proven 1200m profile gives her a practical chance to rebound.

Brings solid 1200m grounding at Ankara with a recent 2nd of 9 over 1200m on 30 Jul, splitting the placegetters behind Cose Della Vita from a wide barrier 9 at level 57kg. Also placed 3rd in a 2Y COND over 1200m on 18 Jun and now draws barrier 6, with Ayhan Kurşun having ridden for that placing. Consistent at the trip (3:0-1-1) and looks ready to give a competitive account.
