Kocaeli Race 4 - Race 4
STEEL WINGS (2) sets up as the one to beat fourth up, with two seconds at Kocaeli including 2nd over 1400m on 11 Aug and a 2kg rise to 59kg looking manageable from barrier 5. RED VICTORY (1) is consistent and draws barrier 3, coming off a 2nd at Kocaeli over 1400m on 11 Aug and stays in the mix at 61kg. SHERIFF IS BACK (9) appeals on a short turnaround (8 days) after 3rd at Bursa over 1400m on 24 Aug and earlier 2nd at Izmir over 1400m on 2 Aug; soft draw in barrier 2 helps. DRAGON FURIOUS (3) has minor claims with a 3rd at Kocaeli over 1100m on 12 May and wasn’t far away when 4th over 1200m on 2 Jul. Something for the Multiples: DRAGON FURIOUS (3)

Consistent 2YO with five placings this prep, most recently 2nd at Kocaeli over 1400m in a 2Y MDN from barrier 3 under 60kg behind Fortissimo. Returns here after 21 days, up 1kg to 61kg, and draws barrier 3 again with a solid record from low gates (3:0-2-1). Honest profile suggests he’s around the mark.

Consistent at this track with 2 seconds from 2 runs, and arrives fourth-up after a 2nd at Kocaeli over 1400m on 11 Aug carrying 57kg behind Black Raptor. Drops 100m today and rises to 59kg from barrier 5, with the current jockey having already partnered him to a 2nd this season. Honest profile on good ground (3:0-2-1) suggests he’s right around the mark again.

Fourth-up and back to Kocaeli after a 61-day break, with all three runs to date here on good ground including a 3rd over 1100m. Last start he was 4th of 7 over 1200m, and now rises 300m with barrier 8 after drawing 3 last time. Honest local profile suggests he can be competitive if he sees out the extra trip.

Second-up after a 54-day break, with a 300m step up in trip and a move to barrier 6 from 4. Debuted at Kocaeli over 1200m, finishing 6th of 9 behind Arasinko. The extra distance and second-up profile give scope for improvement.

Second-up after an Istanbul 1300m 2Y COND debut 18 days ago when 8th of 11 from barrier 12 on Good going at 57kg. Draws much better in barrier 4 and steps up 200m, which could help him settle and finish off. Worth another look with that improved gate and setup.

Two-year-old by Avery Island out of Lady Of Charm resumes for Ser.gökçe and carries 57kg from barrier 10 with M.m.bilğin booked. Debutant profile only, but the set-up suggests a learning run from a wide draw.

Second-up after 77 days, this 2YO returned with a 4th of 11 in a 2Y COND over 1100m at Kocaeli, carrying 57kg from barrier 4 behind Brave Athena. Rises 400m in trip and draws barrier 7 today, which offers a different set-up. Solid return suggests scope to improve with the extra distance.

Fourth-up and on a short turnaround (8 days) after a solid 3rd at Bursa over 1400m in a 2Y MDN, drawn to advantage again from barrier 2 and carrying 57kg. Prior run was a close 2nd at Izmir over 1400m on Good, and overall this prep reads consistently with (2:0-1-1) this season and a positive record from low barriers. Profiles as a reliable juvenile who can hold form under the same weight and trip.
