Ankara Race 5 - Race 5
Leaning to MELIKE (6), who has the best recent piece of form with a 2nd at Ankara then a solid 4th at 1400m, and the inside-ish draw should help on a heavy track. GENERAL FEMALE (5) rates the main danger with three placings this season and a 1400m 3rd two starts back, though the wider barrier is a query. Debutant NASSIM (7) is a watch with a light 54kg and a midfield gate. DEFNE NELE (4) has the lone placing in the field from its only start at this track and can run well fresh at 1400m. Narrow edge to MELIKE (6).

Fourth up and draws the inside after jumping from 7 last time. Latest run was 10th of 10 over 1400m at Ankara on 24 Oct on soft ground. The inside gate gives M.G. Arslan options, and a cleaner run can see improvement on heavy.

Third up and stays at 1400m after finishing 8th of 10 at Ankara on 24 Oct on soft ground. Faces heavy conditions here, a new test compared to that run. Same grade as last start. With race fitness building, can improve.

Fourth up and back to 53kg, which is 4kg less than last start. Latest run was 27 Aug at Ankara over 1400m on GOOD, finishing 7th of 8. With the weight relief and race fitness, Çimen Liya has some scope to improve.

First up after about four months, and draws better from barrier 2 than barrier 6 last time. Only prior run was 3rd of 9 over 1200m at Ankara on 4 Jul on good ground. Steps to 1400m on heavy ground here with A. Kurşun booked. Lightly raced filly with a soft draw and a sound Ankara placing to work from.

Back to Ankara 1400m where General Female was 9th of 11 on 27 Aug, then 6th of 12 over 1200m here on 26 Sep. Steps up from 1200m and strikes HEAVY ground for the first time in these notes. Holds position in the same grade and keeps M.N. Sunkar. Needs to lift but the return to 1400m may help.

Third up and draws better, shifting from barrier 6 to 3, which should aid the 1400m set-up at Ankara. Last run here over 1400m on 17 Oct produced a 4th of 7, a fair platform to build from. Stays in the same grade and gets E. Çankaya aboard, so a repeat of that effort from a softer gate can see her hold her own.

First starter by Myboycharlie out of Divine Baby, trained by M. Tekinalp and ridden by F. Yücel. Debuts over 1400m on a heavy Ankara track. Set-up suggests a learning run but the pedigree and stable/jockey combination offer some appeal.

Fourth up and stays at 1400m after finishing 8th of 10 here on 24 Oct on soft ground. Steps onto a heavy track this time, which presents a different test. M. Akyavuz sticks, keeping continuity with the E. Akyavuz yard. Low-key recent run but race-fit and retains scope to improve under these conditions.
