Istanbul Race 9 - Race 9
EFE KAPTAN (1) maps well after a 3rd at Istanbul on 27 Sep over 1400m (AR) from barrier 4 with Akin Sözen, and earlier 2nds at Istanbul 1300m and Kocaeli 1200m; draws barrier 3 and stays on good ground he handles. YALIN ATEŞ (9) appeals from barrier 1, coming off a 3rd at Istanbul 1600m (AR, SOFT) on 25 Sep and prior 4ths at Istanbul 1300m and Ankara 1400m; the 200m drop looks suitable. ALANDER (4) was 4th at Istanbul 1400m (AR) on 27 Sep carrying 54kg and is fourth-up from barrier 4. TÜMÇIKMAZ (8) brings a 5th at Istanbul 1600m (AR, SOFT) on 25 Sep and was 6th at Istanbul 1400m prior; back to 1400m from barrier 6 keeps him in the mix.

Consistent this prep with 2 seconds and a third from 5 runs, including a 3rd at Istanbul over 1400m in AR grade 12 days ago behind Saroslu and Çildutay. Proven at the track and trip with a 1400m placing and draws barrier 3, with A. Sözen having ridden him to a 2nd and 3rd. Genuine each-way profile on recent efforts.

Brings consistent Istanbul efforts this prep, including 4th of 12 over 1400m (AR) on 27 Sep and 4th of 10 in a 3Y MDN over 1300m on 9 Sep, both on good ground at 57kg. Has a 1300m placing this season and sticks to a similar trip, but draws wider in barrier 13 after barrier 7 last time. Genuine top-four type if he holds that recent level.

Third-up after two Istanbul AR runs this prep, finishing 7th over 1400m (Good) then 9th over 1600m (Soft) a fortnight ago. Drops back 200m and draws wider in barrier 10, with E. Bozdağ taking over; track-and-trip record is unplaced (Istanbul, 1400: 1:0-0-0), so needs to lift to figure.

Fourth-up and coming off a solid 4th at Istanbul over 1400m (AR, 54kg) 12 days ago from barrier 2 behind Altin Adam, which reads as his best run this prep. That followed a tougher 10th at Bursa (1300m, 3Y MDN, 57kg) and a 4th at Izmir (1200m, 3Y COND 1, 57kg), so the step to 1400m appeared to suit. With 54kg again and a handy barrier 4, he looks ready to hold his form.

Faces another wide draw from barrier 14 and is yet to place in seven Istanbul runs, including 0:0-0-0 at the track/distance. Best recent effort was 6th of 10 in a 3Y MDN over 1300m here on 9 Sep (57kg), and he’s on a 12‑day turnaround. Needs to lift on exposed figures but the quick backup could help him hold a spot.

Opened the prep with a solid 3rd at Istanbul over 1200m in 3Y COND1 on Good, carrying 57kg, before two 8th-place finishes at 1300m and 1600m. Drops 200m here and sticks with Gokhan Kocakaya; fourth-up profile with all three runs this season at this track gives a consistent setup. Capable of improving back at the shorter trip.

On a 14‑day turnaround after a solid 5th of 8 over 1600m at Istanbul (AR) from barrier 6 on soft, behind Tankizi, and now drops 200m. Istanbul record is 0 from 3 and unplaced at 1400m, but draws barrier 6 again with 57kg under Er.cankiliç. Honest recent efforts suggest a minor improvement is within reach back to this trip.

Drops back 200m after a solid 3rd at Istanbul over 1600m (AR) on 25 Sep, drawn wide that day but now gains barrier 1 on a 14‑day turnaround. Earlier in the prep ran 4th at Ankara over 1400m (AR) on 8 Sep carrying 57kg on Good. Inside draw and the step back to 1400m look suitable for a consistent showing.

Second-up after 12 days and returning to 1400m at Istanbul, where their only try came two weeks ago in AR grade. Debut run at 1200m in 3Y COND saw them finish 7th of 9 on good going with 57kg, and they now draw wider in barrier 12 after barrier 9 last time. Still searching for a breakthrough at the track and trip, so a measured outlook suits.

Best recent effort was 6th of 12 over 1400m at Istanbul on 27 Sep in AR grade, carrying 54kg from barrier 3, with Altin Adam winning. Prior runs included a 10th over 1300m and 11th over 1600m on good ground, and she’s 0-from-5 at the track and yet to place at the trip. Draws barrier 7 and stays around this distance, so a measured showing would be a positive step.
