Istanbul Race 4 - Race 4
KÜÇÜK AZAT (1) brings the strongest recent form and is on a short turnaround after 2nd at Ankara over 1200m on 4 Jun; also placed at Istanbul two back and maps to get his chance despite barrier 8. KOCA KAPTAN (4) is consistent at Istanbul, runner‑up over 1000m then 3rd over 1200m on 27 May, and draws barrier 2. ALPLI (2) is fourth‑up and has back‑to‑back 3rds at Kocaeli and Istanbul over 1200m, but must work from barrier 12. YALNIZDEDE (8) was 4th at Istanbul over 1200m on 3 Jun and improves to barrier 1 second‑up.

Placed in 3 of 4 starts this prep, including 2nd at Ankara over 1200m on 4 Jun carrying 57kg on Good behind Koca Afşur. On a short turnaround and draws barrier 8 after an inside gate last time; small 100m step is negligible. Consistent at 1200m and should be around the mark again.

Building a consistent profile fourth-up with back-to-back 3rds at 1200m, latest at Istanbul on 27 May (12 runners, GOOD) behind Cihanerk and Queen Hanim. Draws wider here from barrier 12 after barrier 6 last time, but the Istanbul track record includes that placing and the prep is trending the right way.

Second-up after a single run at Istanbul over 1200m nine days ago, finishing 7th of 11 behind Üstünsoy. Steps out from barrier 6 after drawing 3 there; a slight 100m lift in trip could aid progression. Early in the prep and open to improvement.

Third-up after two Istanbul runs, improving from 6th of 10 over 1000m to 5th of 7 over 1100m, both at 57kg. Steps up 200m and draws barrier 9 after barrier 2 last time, which could shape his early positioning. Progressing gradually and can be around the mark with further improvement.

Third-up and holding form after a 5th of 12 over 1200m at Istanbul on 27 May, carrying 57kg from barrier 4 behind Cihanerk. Debut run was 6th of 13 over 1000m on 15 May from a wide gate (12), also on GOOD. With a slight step up in experience and a soft draw again, a competitive showing is within reach.

Fourth-up and on a short turnaround after finishing 9th of 9 over 1300m at Istanbul on 5 Jun, drawn 8 and carrying 55kg behind Taşkın Kral. Earlier runs included 5th of 15 over 1000m on soft and 8th of 13 from a wide barrier 13 on good, so the profile is of a lightly raced type still finding its level. Draws barrier 7 here and stays at 1300m, looking for improvement with added race fitness.

Returns on a short turnaround after finishing 6th of 11 over 1200m at Kocaeli on 2 Jun, behind Esrin Hatun. Earlier Istanbul runs at 1000m produced two 4th-place efforts in big fields, suggesting some early promise at the shorter trip. Drawn barrier 10 here with E. Çizik booked, a repeat of those 1000m efforts would keep him competitive.
