Fourth-up and draws barrier 3 after a close 3rd at Kocaeli over 1400m on 30 Jul, finishing behind Yurtçu and İlkbaharım. Drops to 57kg today with a slight 100m step, and owns a placing at this track and on good ground. Well placed to hold a forward spot from the gate and give a sight.

Fourth-up and draws barrier 1 after a close 3rd at Kocaeli over 1200m on 28 Jul, finishing behind Diyarefe and Kuzilkule. Steps up 300m from that run and carries 57kg, with a CurrentTrack record of one start for a placing, so the inside draw could aid a forward showing.

Second-up after an 11‑day turnaround, having finished 6th of 10 over 1300m at Istanbul on Good going carrying 57kg. Steps up 200m and draws barrier 7 (from 5), with S. Özén taking over, and can strip fitter for that debut run behind Erhanhan.

Third-up and coming off a 3rd at Kocaeli over 1200m on 28 Jul, carrying 54kg under Ö.F. Özen, behind Balbeyim and Düzgörün Oğlu. Steps up 300m today and draws barrier 10 after an inside gate last time; has placed at this track and on good going, and the current jockey-trainer combo has a placing from their sole start. Genuine each-way claims if the extra trip suits.

Progressed second-up when 2nd at Ankara over 1200m in a 3Y MDN (FAST) from barrier 5, carrying 57kg. Now third-up with a 2kg drop to 55kg, minor barrier improvement to 6, and stretches to 1500m; profiles to build on that latest effort.

Fourth-up and coming off a Kocaeli 1400m 2nd (10 runners) on 30 Jul under 52kg from barrier 9 on Good, placing behind Yurtçu. Returns to 1300m with a slight drop in barrier to 8 and again carries 52kg, with a prior Istanbul 1200m MDN run and a softer-track Ankara effort offering mixed early prep references. With a track 1:0-1-0 and good-ground 2:0-1-0 profile, this setup looks suitable for another forward showing.

Fourth-up and draws barrier 2 after jumping from 9 last time, which could help settle closer. Recent Kocaeli runs read 9th/11 over 1200m (Good) then 10th/10 and 10th/12, and now steps slightly to 1300m. Needs to lift on those figures, but the soft draw offers a better setup.
