Returns on a short turnaround after a solid 3rd at Istanbul on 23 Oct over 1200m (3Y MDN, 58kg) on soft, behind Balkibey and Fatih Başkan. Earlier placed 3rd over 1300m and 2nd over 1200m this prep, and now draws barrier 1 with a 300m rise in trip. Consistent at this track this season and maps for a favourable run from the inside draw.

On a short turnaround after a 4th of 11 in a 3Y MDN over 1200m at Istanbul on 23 Oct, drawn the rail and carrying 57kg on soft behind Balkibey. Steps up 300m here from that run and draws barrier 5 this time, with Istanbul form showing five runs for no placings, so a measured hope if the recent improvement continues.

Third-up after two Istanbul runs on good ground, most recently 10th of 14 in a 1400m 3Y MDN on 9 Oct carrying 55kg behind Fatihinaslani. Drops 2kg to 57kg from that run and draws much better in barrier 2 after jumping from 5 and 15; slight 100m rise from the debut 1200m. Still learning but the softer draw could help him settle and improve.

Back on a short turnaround after finishing 6th of 11 over 1200m at Istanbul on 23 Oct in AR company, and now stretches 300m in trip. Has been around the mark without placing this prep, including 6th over 1600m at Ankara on 24 Sep, and draws wider here from barrier 11 after last start’s inside gate. Honest enough efforts suggest a competitive showing is possible with a clean run.

Backing up on a 7‑day turnaround after an 8th over 1400m at Bursa, having run a solid 3rd there two starts back over 1200m in a 3Y MDN behind Domaniç Beyi and Azraktay. Steps to 1500m where he’s yet to place from three tries, but draws barrier 3 and rises to 57kg from recent 54kg. Recent consistency at shorter trips suggests he’ll need to lift at this distance, though the inside draw should aid the run.

Back on a short turnaround after a solid 3rd at Bursa over 1400m in 3Y MDN, finishing behind Kolaysa Yakala and Nilüfer. Recent form includes another 3rd over 1200m on Good, and he now steps slightly in trip with 57kg from barrier 6. Consistent minor placings this season suggest he can be competitive again.

Closed off for 4th of 13 at Kocaeli over 1200m on 20 Oct (AR) and now steps up 300m to 1500m. Istanbul record is lean (8:0-0-0) and draws barrier 10 after a wide gate last Istanbul run. With 57kg and a midfield recent effort, a measured showing is possible if he sees out the trip.

On a short turnaround after finishing 10th of 11 over 1200m at Istanbul on 23 Oct (AR, 55kg, soft), and now rises 2kg. Prior runs this prep include 8th/12 over 1400m (AR, good) and 10th/11 in a 3Y MDN over 1300m, both at Istanbul. Needs to lift on exposed track record at Istanbul (4:0-0-0), but the return to good ground may help.

Fourth-up and on a short turnaround, he improved sharply last start at Istanbul to finish 3rd of 10 over 1400m (AR) from barrier 7 with 57kg, behind Vardakosta and Aller Yildizi. Drops to 55kg with a slight step to 1500m and draws barrier 9; his Istanbul/season record (3:0-0-1) and partnership with M. Kaya (2:0-0-1) suggest he’s edging the right way.
