Istanbul Race 8 - Race 8
MARMARALI (7) appeals most off a debut 2nd at this track and trip, and with a similar setup should get every chance from midfield. AMENTES (3) is a solid threat after a 3rd here over 1400m on debut and draws better, suggesting natural improvement. ALWAYS ON (2) also brings a 3rd at the track and distance and can hold a spot from a similar barrier. MY ZEKO (1) has depth of local experience and recent 1400m runs, which could tell late if the tempo suits; slight edge to MARMARALI (7) in a tight finish.

Second up and stayed on for 3rd of 7 over 1400m at Istanbul on 28 Oct. Draws better from barrier 4 after jumping from 7 last time. With H. Çizik up again for S. Bektaş, Amentes gets a favourable set-up to hold its form.

Stays in the same grade after finishing 9th of 12 over 1400m at Bursa on 30 Oct. The experience at this trip is a small plus. With Mah. Turan up for F. Kiran, Bolt Nonstop can improve with that run behind him.

Second up after finishing 7th of 9 over 1300m at Istanbul on 30 Sep on good ground, and stays in the same grade. Draws markedly better with barrier 3 after coming from 8 last time, which can help settle into the race. With E. Aktuğ aboard for Y. Demirkiran, a cleaner run from the gate gives King Legacy the chance to improve at 1400m.

Second up after a 1400m Istanbul run on 28 Oct, finishing 5th of 7. Stays at 1400m and keeps G. Özçelik, with R. Güneli training. Fitness should have improved and this set-up looks straightforward enough to hold a spot in the mix.
