Second-up after debuting 12 days ago at Ankara over 1400m, finishing 7th of 10 in TB company behind Mangudai. Steps to 1500m with a slightly wider barrier (8) and keeps the same stable; this looks a natural progression for the youngster.

Fourth-up and back to barrier 3, the runner returns to the track and trip where he debuted with a solid 3rd of 9 at Ankara over 1300m in a 2Y COND 1. Subsequent runs at 1600m and 1500m in small fields didn’t figure, but the short turnaround of 12 days suggests he stays in work and can aim to recapture that first-up effort.

Third-up and on a short turnaround, the runner has posted back-to-back 4th-place efforts at Ankara, latest over 1200m on 1 Oct (TB) from barrier 9 on soft going behind Pasadena. Steps up 300m in trip and draws barrier 7, with the same trainer-jockey combination as last start. Honest early profile suggests he can hold his form with the extra distance.

Debuted 25 days ago at Adana over 1300m (TB) and ran 2nd of 11 under 57kg, finishing level with the winner Baba Ocağı from barrier 4. Now second-up with a 200m rise in trip and an inside draw, and the same rider-trainer pairing intact. That solid introduction suggests the runner can build on it from barrier 1.

Draws barrier 5 for trainer İ.temel and will be ridden by M.s.çelik. A 2YO by Bluegrass Cat out of Vegastruck (by Smart Strike), this debut setup reads well on paper. Respect the profile but market and parade may guide expectations.

Returns first-up after 3 months with a handy draw in barrier 4 and a 300m rise in trip to 1500m. Closed last prep with a 2nd at Ankara over 1200m (57kg) from barrier 10, and the same rider-trainer combination has a 1:0-1-0 record. With a favourable gate and proven affinity for the team, the runner has claims to be competitive fresh.
