Istanbul Race 5 - Race 5
CHEF CURRY (2) Initial appearance at the races for trainer O Altuntaş and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Good to see Erhan Aktuğ is jumping on. Keep your eye on the market. SHINING DRAGON (12) First race start for trainer Bay GüL. Watch early betting. GLONASS (4) Ran 6th last run at this track. Watch it go close. BOUNDLESS GLORY (9) Fresh today after a break. Came in 7th last start here but was on debut last time. Jockey A KaçMaz and trainer Hakan YüZbaşI are an appealing combination. Can surprise and by no means out of it.

Started $5.50 and came in 7th last run at this track but fitter for debut run. Will try to take advantage of the draw. Dropping in distance. Looking at others.

Racing as a debutant for O Altuntaş and has a nice advantage with a good stall. Jockey Erhan Aktuğ adds value. Watch the market moves.

Odds of $18.00 and unsatisfactory performance when 9th last time here. Hard to recommend.

Was $41.00 and average at best when 12th last time at this venue but was a debutant last start. Back to a shorter distance. Won't find this easy.

Back after a spell. Odds of $27.00 and finished 5th last run here. S Akbulat and S AydoğAn enjoy a high success rate together. Has some claims.
