Kocaeli Race 8 - Race 8
SILA ALEYNA (1) maps as the likely improver second up after a 2nd at Bursa over 1400m 11 days ago (TB, 55kg) and now draws barrier 4 after jumping from 9 last time; retains T. Yildiz and carries 59kg. TODAY IS A GIFT (2) is consistent here with two Kocaeli thirds this prep, including 1400m on 11 Aug (2Y MDN, 55kg), and backs up from a 1200m third 14 days ago. SOUL OF MINE (8) has a solid Kocaeli platform, close 4th at Ankara over 1300m last start and was 5th at this track/trip on 11 Aug from the rails; draws 3. NINJA QUEEN (6) is fit and holding form with 4th at Kocaeli over 1200m on 25 Aug and steps to 1400m for the first time.

Second-up and already twice runner-up on good ground, including 2nd of 8 over 1400m at Bursa 11 days ago from barrier 9. Carries 59kg today after 55kg last time but draws better in barrier 4, with T. Yildiz again aboard. Consistent profile suggests she can be competitive with a similar run.

Holding consistent juvenile form at Kocaeli, running 3rd in a 2YF MDN over 1200m on 25 Aug and 3rd in a 2Y MDN over 1400m on 11 Aug, both on good ground. Returns to 1400m where it has placed, rising 4kg to 57kg but draws well in barrier 5 on a 14‑day turnaround. Solid place credentials at the track and trip based on this preparation’s profile.

Second-up after an 18-day break and draws the inside gate after jumping from barrier 11 on debut. Debut run at Istanbul over 1300m (TB) saw an 8th of 8 under 57kg on Good, behind Arbitrage. The significant barrier improvement and race experience can help her settle better here.

Fourth-up and consistent this prep, with 3 runs for two 3rds on good ground and a placing at this track. Last start she stretched to 1400m at Ankara in a 2Y MDN Fillies from barrier 7 and finished 9th; prior to that ran 3rd over 1300m (2Y FILLIES COND 19) and 3rd over 1200m at Kocaeli with G. Özçelik aboard. Returns to Özçelik here from barrier 8 and stays at 57kg, which gives her a chance to rebound.

Third-up after a 70-day break, returning to 1200m with a 200m step up in trip and an improved barrier to 2. Debut campaign at Kocaeli yielded 4th of 4 over 1100m on Good before 6th of 6 over 1200m, both for H Dolmaz. With B.akçay aboard and a soft draw, she looks to be searching for improvement at this stage of the prep.

Fourth-up and on a 14-day turnaround, she comes off a 4th of 12 in a 2YF MDN over 1200m at Kocaeli, carrying 57kg from barrier 3 behind Coral Reefs. Faces a 200m distance rise and shifts to barrier 9; consistent 1200m efforts suggest she’s been learning with each run, and a measured step forward is within reach.

Third-up after a 70-day break with a 3kg drop to 54kg and a better barrier (6) than last start. Ran 5th of 7 over 1200m at Kocaeli on 30 Jun in 2YF MDN from barrier 8, with Katsura scoring, and was 4th of 8 over 1000m there on debut. The setup—distance back to 1000m and kinder draw—gives her a chance to build on that early promise.
