Istanbul Race 4 - Race 4
MAKINIST (1) rates on top third-up with a strong Istanbul profile (2 wins, 1 placing from 4) and a last-start 1st at Istanbul 1500m on 25 Sep (TB, SOFT) beating MILLENNIUM FALCON (3), now up to 60kg but draws barrier 5 and reunites with a jockey he’s 2-from-3 with. MILLENNIUM FALCON (3) is a key threat after that 2nd in the same 1500m race and has solid 1500m stats (1 win, 2 seconds, 2 thirds from 8); barrier 2 is a positive shift from last start. AGUA REGIA (5) was 3rd in that 25 Sep 1500m at Istanbul from barrier 11 and can be competitive again from barrier 9 with a 4kg weight rise. DOĞANHAN (2) maps well from barrier 1 and drops 600m after a 7th at 2100m on 16 Sep; earlier 2nd at Istanbul 1600m on 30 Aug in 3Y HCP reads well.

Proven at Istanbul with a solid record (4:2-0-1) and perfect at the trip (1500m:1-1-0), coming here third-up off a 1500m win on 25 Sep under H Karataş. The rider has a strong association (3:2-0-0), and he draws barrier 5 with a 4.5kg rise to 60kg from last start. On a 14-day turnaround, his consistent local profile suggests he can run well again.

Progressive this prep, winning a 3Y MDN over 1400m at Istanbul before a 2nd in a 3Y HCP over 1600m, and now drops 600m in trip off a 2100m 3Y COND run 23 days ago. Draws barrier 1 and carries 55kg (down 3kg), with solid Istanbul figures (5:1-1-0) and on Good going (3:1-1-0). Well placed back in distance and map to get favours from the draw.

In consistent touch this season (5:0-2-1) and comes off a narrow 2nd at Istanbul over 1500m on 25 Sep in TB company, drawn handier today in barrier 2 with a 4.5kg rise to 58kg. Proven at the trip (1500:8:1-2-2) and around this circuit (CurrentTrack:15:1-3-3), with solid track-distance returns. Well placed to hold form from a soft draw, provided the weight climb doesn’t blunt his finish.

Closed for 3rd at Istanbul over 1500m on 25 Sep (TB, 11 runners) behind Makinist, and now comes back to the same trip two weeks later on a 4kg rise to 56kg. Drawn barrier 9 after working from 11 last time, with solid course stats (Istanbul 7:1-0-1) but yet to win at 1500m (4:0-0-1). Competitive on latest evidence and maps to hold her form.

Returns to Istanbul from barrier 3 with a 3kg drop to 56kg after a 5th over 1500m here 14 days ago on soft behind Makinist. Strong local profile (Istanbul 12:1-4-1) and a positive jockey record with A. Sözen (3:1-1-0) suggest he can be competitive at this trip despite a lean distance record.

Returns to Istanbul off a 38-day break with a 300m rise in trip to 1500m and a better draw (barrier 6 after barrier 12 at Kocaeli). Has been safely held across five starts on good ground, including 12th over this track/trip when B. Akçay rode. Needs to lift but the kinder barrier and 54kg offer a more suitable setup.

Drops 4kg to 52kg and draws better in barrier 8 after a tough wide gate run when 16th of 17 over 2000m at Istanbul on 30 Sep (TB, 56kg). Also comes back 500m on a short turnaround, with prior efforts including 10th of 16 over 1400m on 23 Sep (3Y COND 19, 55kg). The lighter weight and improved draw offer a chance to settle better and find improvement at 1500m.
