Kocaeli Race 5 - Race 5
DRAGON FURIOUS (2) brings the best recent 1200m figure here, resuming on a 7‑day turnaround after a 3rd at Kocaeli over 1200 in 2Y HCP with 52kg from barrier 3; maps well again from gate 5 and retains the same jockey. EL QUIQUE (4) was sound 4th first up at Istanbul over 1300 with 57kg and now drops to 55kg second up with a better barrier (9 to 7), which suits the slight drop to 1200. MY BLACK BOY (6) has solid maidens’ form including a 4th of 12 at Kocaeli over 1400 two back and comes back to 55kg; can hold a spot despite barrier 11. CAPRENO (1) has the season’s peak placing among these with a recent Ankara 1300m 2nd and returns quickly (12 days) but faces a trickier barrier 8 and rises to 59kg.

Ran 2nd at Ankara over 1300m on 19 Sep in TB grade behind Radagia, then was 5th over 1200m on 1 Oct on soft ground. Steps out from barrier 8 with 59kg (up 2kg) and returns to 1200m where the record is modest, but his recent 1300–1400m efforts show competitive ability. Honest claims if he holds that mid-prep form.

On a 7-day turnaround after a solid 3rd at Kocaeli over 1200m in a 2Y HCP, and returns to that trip where his record reads (3:0-0-1). The jockey sticks and he draws barrier 5, with his best form at this track and distance offering a tidy platform to hold his form.

Returns first up after 103 days with a handy barrier 4, having placed 2nd at Kocaeli over 1100m in a 2Y MDN on 9 Jun (57kg) behind Razenoid. Has a Kocaeli record of (2:0-1-0) and has raced once at today’s 1200m. Forward showing fresh would not surprise given the prior maiden placing and suitable draw.

Second-up after a 4th of 9 at Istanbul over 1300m on 30 Sep in TB grade, drawn wide there and carried 57kg. Drops 2kg to 55kg, draws barrier 7, and comes back 100m on a 13‑day turnaround. That debut run provides a sound platform to progress.

Returns first-up after 96 days with 55kg and a softer draw than debut (barrier 13 versus 9 last time). Debuted at Kocaeli over 1200m, finishing 5th of 9 under 57kg, and now drops 2kg for the same trainer. That experience and the lighter weight can help him progress.

Back from a 1200m Istanbul run 9 days ago when 6th of 9 behind Ümitbey, and prior to that he boxed on for 4th of 12 over 1400m at Kocaeli. Drops 2kg to 55kg and comes from a wider barrier 11; overall this season’s 4 runs have been honest without a placing, so he’ll need to lift to feature.

Draws the inside gate and drops 200m after two 1400m runs at Kocaeli, most recently 8th of 12 on 22 Sep in TB class from barrier 9 with 54kg. Earlier 5th of 7 at this track and trip in a 2YF MDN on 30 Jun carrying 57kg behind Katsura. The softer weight at 53kg and the rail draw present a tidier setup at 1200m.

Third-up after a 5th of 12 over 1400m at Kocaeli on 22 Sep (TB), drawn the rail and kept on, with Naldöken winning. Drops 200m to 1200m and 2kg to 55kg, and moves from barrier 1 to 6 with a new rider booked. With two runs at the track this season and the set-up changes, a sharper showing is possible.

Third-up and on a 12‑day turnaround after finishing 8th of 9 over 1200m at Ankara on soft ground on 1 Oct (57kg) behind Pasadena. Debut run was also 8th of 9 over 1300m at Ankara on 12 Sep in 2Y COND 1 behind Final Legend, and he drops 2kg to 55kg today from a wider barrier 10. Needs to lift but the weight relief at this stage of the prep could help.
