On a 14-day turnaround after debuting at Kocaeli on 16 Jun over 1100m in a 2Y COND, carrying 55kg from barrier 6 in an 11-runner field and finishing behind winner Brave Athena and runner-up Soul Of Mine. Drops to 54kg and, with that race experience at the track, looks capable of improvement.

Ran 3rd in a 2Y MDN at Kocaeli over 1100m on 9 Jun (good), behind Razenoid and Stakes Winner with 55kg. Third-up and drawn to advantage in barrier 2, albeit up to 57kg. Can build on that track placing.

Runner-up on debut at Istanbul over 1000m on 24 May behind Scythian, then 5th at Kocaeli and Istanbul over 1100m on Good, the latter in a 2Y MDN FILLIES with 8 runners. Fourth-up with 57kg from barrier 3, race experience and that early placing suggest a reasonable showing is within reach.

Placed 3rd at Kocaeli over 1100m on 23 Jun behind Dragon Victory and Crimson Power, and backs up on a 7-day turnaround with the same rider (jockey record 1:0-0-1). Rises 3kg from that run; with a track record of (2:0-0-1) and overall (6:0-0-1), a repeat of last week’s effort would keep him in the mix.

Ran 4th of 6 at Istanbul on 17 Jun over 1100m in a 2Y MDN FILLIES (57kg, Good), behind Backtrack and Kir Bumerang. That improved on an 8th of 10 on debut at 1000m, and now draws barrier 4 after jumping from 7 last time. Third-up with a (2:0-0-0) record, a similar showing would see this runner competitive.

Debuted 70 days ago with 4th of 8 at Kocaeli over 1000m (Good) from barrier 8, behind Lion Esmer and Rattlesnake. Second-up with 57kg, rising 2kg, and M.m.bi̇lgi̇n takes over; a repeat of that debut effort would see a competitive showing.

Second-up after a debut 10th of 11 at Istanbul over 1000m on 14 Jun (Good), behind Harun Reis. Steps up 200m and rises to 57kg, with a better draw in barrier 5 after gate 9 last time as E.aktuğ takes over. Scope to improve with the softer barrier and added experience.
