Istanbul Race 3 - Race 3

NART THE BATTLE (1) brings consistent 2000m–2200m form and a last-start Ankara 2200m win on 59kg, and now draws barrier 2 with the same rider engaged. ENTERPRISING ROCK (4) beat NART THE BATTLE over 1900m at Istanbul on 14 Jun and has since raced twice; his two recent Istanbul wins read well. ANGEL ON THE WING (5) was 2nd over 2100m at Istanbul on 1 Jul carrying 55kg and maps well again from barrier 3. TURAMUN (2) has a 2100m Istanbul 2nd on soft on 13 May and gets a softer draw than recent runs.

Arrives in consistent form, winning a 3Y HCP over 2200m at Ankara on 23 Jun carrying 59kg, with Tercal Nihat the runner-up. Prior to that he was 2nd at Istanbul over 1900m on 14 Jun and 2nd at Ankara over 2200m on 23 May, so today’s slight drop back in trip looks fine. Drawn barrier 2 and reunited with İsm.yildirim, he profiles as a reliable contender.

Proven at Istanbul with a (9:2-2-1) track record and a solid second over this track and 2100m on 13 May behind The Real One. Comes off an 8th of 18 in a GROUP 2 3Y over 2000m here 17 days ago and now draws better from barrier 4 after gate 10, with A. Sözen taking over at 58kg. Profile suggests he can settle and improve back to a more suitable setup.

Draws barrier 1 and returns to Istanbul 2100m, a trip where he was 7th of 8 here on 29 Apr. Recent Kocaeli form is solid, winning 1800m on 11 Jun and earlier a 2nd over 1500m, and he’s been racing regularly with a 15-day turnaround. Inside draw could help him settle handier and give him every chance to hold his form up in distance.

In solid form this season (5:2-0-0) with both wins at Istanbul, including a 1900m success on 14 Jun over Nart The Battle. Close-up efforts since when 4th of 7 over 1900m here on 5 Jul and 5th of 7 over 2000m on 24 Jun, and he sticks to a similar trip from barrier 6. With a 10-day turnaround and a positive jockey partnership (4:2-0-0), he profiles as a genuine contender.

Brings consistent 3YO form, placing in three of the last four including a 2nd at Istanbul over 2100m in 3Y COND when drawn barrier 3. Proven at the track (Istanbul 9:1-3-1) and handled the trip once for a 2nd, with a similar barrier today to aid the run. Solid chance to hold form off a 14‑day turnaround.

Back on a short turnaround after finishing 8th of 9 over 1200m at Istanbul three days ago, and now stretches a significant 900m to 2100m. Istanbul record stands at 0-from-4, including 9th of 9 over this trip on 21 Jun in a 3Y HCP 14 with 52kg; carries 50kg here from barrier 5. Needs to lift on exposed figures but the lighter weight and softer draw offer some hope for improvement.
