Ankara Race 9 - Race 9
BESNI (1) appeals on a second-up profile after finishing 2nd at Istanbul over 1300m on 2 August with 57kg, while barrier 9 is unchanged from that run. ÖZMIRDAS (6) and KORDONIS (4) both bring recent Ankara form, finishing 2nd and 3rd respectively over 1300m on 4 August with 57kg; ÖZMIRDAS has also drawn barrier 14 after starting from barrier 6. MELIHCIM (5) is third up and has a 1200m record at Ankara of one 2nd from two starts, including a 2nd there on 18 July with 57kg.

Besni resumed with a 2nd of 10 over 1300m at Istanbul on 2 August, beaten 0L on GOOD ground while carrying 57kg, and Dayday finished ahead. Now second-up after 22 days, the consistent return and current jockey's 1:0-1-0 record provide a sound platform, although the 100m shorter trip and barrier 9 shape as key considerations.

Runner-up over 1300m at Ankara on 4 August in a 10-runner field, carrying 57kg and finishing 0L behind Gökayhan. Now second-up with an Ankara record of (1:0-1-0) and the current jockey also holding a (1:0-1-0) record on the runner, he has sound claims to build on that effort.
