On a 7‑day turnaround and draws much better here from barrier 2 after jumping from 10 when 9th of 11 over 1300m at Istanbul in a 2Y MDN. Drops 4kg to 50kg and comes back 100m, with prior best this prep a 4th of 5 at Kocaeli over 1400m on good ground. Set-up is kinder today, which can help him find improvement.
