Ankara Race 3 - Race 3
LEOPARDESS (1) rates on top with consistent 2nd/3rd finishes this prep and a recent 2nd here over 1400m; the cut in trip to 1300m and a soft draw suit despite rising to 58kg. DENIZARES (2) appeals as the danger after a 2nd over 1300m last start and solid records with this rider and from similar barriers; handles softer going based on prior SOFT wins/placings. EMANET (4) has upside back at this track after winning here two starts ago, though a small field 5th last time tempers confidence. DUM SPIRO SPERO (3) is first up but has a sound placing profile and a positive record at this preparation stage; market watch, with fitness the query. Leaning to LEOPARDESS (1) to convert the consistent run into a win.

Placed in 5 of last 5 and comes here fourth up off a 2nd of 7 over 1400m at Ankara on 17 Oct. Drawn in her preferred alley range (barriers 1-3) where she's (5:1-2-2), and she’s been consistent this season (3:0-2-1). Same grade as last start, and M. Akyavuz sticks. Reliable profile suggests she can be competitive again over 1300m on heavy ground.

Third up and comes off a 2nd of 6 over 1300m at Istanbul on 18 Oct on good ground, so the trip holds no fears. Placed in 3 of last 5 and has twice run second from three rides with E. Çankaya for T.O. Kara (3:0-2-0). Steps onto heavy ground at Ankara, which is a different test, but the partnership has been effective. Competitive claims if handling conditions.

First up after a 14-week break, Dum Spiro Spero resumes over 1300m after finishing 5th of 5 at Bursa at this trip on 27 Jul. Placed in 3 of last 5 and has a strong record from similar barriers (4-6) at (3:2-0-1). Draw and setup look suitable for a competitive showing despite the heavy going.

Third up and stays in the same grade. Last start at Ankara over 1400m on 15 Sep he finished 5th of 5 on GOOD going. Drops back to 1300m and strikes HEAVY ground, with Ö. Yildirim riding for F. Kip. Balanced set-up to find improvement.

Second up and draws better after an 8 to 3 barrier shift, and drops from 57kg to 53kg. Last start was 5th of 8 over 1400m at Ankara on 22 Aug on GOOD. With the lighter weight and kinder alley, Classy Man gets a more suitable set-up.

First starter by Klimt out of Mighty Shulammite for C. Şimşek, with E. Aktuğ booked. Debuts over 1300m at Ankara on heavy ground, which asks for resilience from the outset. Set-up looks straightforward for an early look at ability without any exposed form to go on.

Carries 51kg after a 4kg drop since last start, which could help at 1300m. Last time was 8th of 9 over 1200m at Adana on 20 Oct on GOOD going, so the HEAVY surface here presents a new test. With S. Yazicioğlu aboard and a lighter impost, Sha Carri has scope to improve.
