Istanbul Race 2 - Race 2
Limited exposed form supplied, so keep it simple: the inside draw gives BATTERINI (4) a tactical edge from barrier 1, while LITTLE FLORENTINA (6) maps well from barrier 2 with a senior rider up. GRAVITAS (5) and WHITE CASTLE (12) draw handy gates and look suited at 1400m on debut profiles, each appearing well placed to stalk the speed.
