Istanbul Race 1 - Race 1
ALCANZAR (2) brings the strongest recent figure after a 2nd at Istanbul on 27 Sep over 1400m (AR) from barrier 5 carrying 55kg, and maps handier from barrier 6. NILPERI (9) is third-up and comes off a 3rd at Bursa on 5 Oct over 1400m (3Y MDN F) from barrier 4 with 57kg, and draws well in barrier 3. GÜNŞIRAY (1) is on a short turnaround and improved to 2nd at Ankara on 10 Oct over 1500m (3YF MDN) from barrier 3 with 54kg; slight drop to 1400m suits and can hold form despite barrier 10. ÖZGÜNDEN (10) has two recent 3rds at Kocaeli and Izmir over 1400m (AR) and gets a better draw than last time (barrier 8 versus 13 at Bursa).

Closed off for 2nd over 1500m at Ankara on 10 Oct in a 3YF MDN, finishing behind Bilgü, and is back on a short turnaround. Earlier 3rd over 1500m in AR grade at Ankara on 29 Aug adds substance to her current prep. Draws wider in barrier 10 today, so a measured ride could see her figure again.

Found a sharp lift last time at Istanbul over 1400m in AR class, finishing 2nd from barrier 5 with 55kg, and returns from a 22-day break. Her records show a placing at the track/distance (1:0-1-0) and she draws barrier 6 with B. Akçay again engaged. That recent runner-up effort gives her a solid platform to hold form.

Third-up and back from a 6th of 12 in a 1400m 3Y MDN F at Bursa 14 days ago, having earlier run 2nd in a 1200m 3Y COND at Istanbul. The track record reads 1:0-1-0 and she draws barrier 4 here after winning barrier 1 last time, which looks a handy gate. With that recent placing and a suitable draw, the runner has claims to be competitive.

Third-up after a 10‑day turnaround, with a barrier improvement to 5 from 8 last start. Posted 4th of 10 over 1200m at Istanbul in a 3Y COND before finishing 11th of 13 in a 3Y MDN over 1400m; today’s gate should help find a handier spot. A settling run with improvement is within reach at this stage of the prep.

Worked home for 6th of 14 in a 3Y MDN over 1400m at Istanbul 10 days ago from barrier 11, with Enes Bozdağ aboard. Returns to the same rider and similar trip, though the wide barrier again asks for a clean getaway. A measured showing last time suggests he can be around the mark with even luck from the draw.

Draws barrier 1 after a midfield 5th of 14 at Istanbul over 1400m (AR) 10 days ago behind Efe Kaptan, which was his best recent finish. He has yet to place from six starts at the track or in two tries at the trip, but the inside draw could help secure the right run. A measured improver if he makes use of the gate.

Drawn barrier 7 and partnered by B. Çetin for trainer B. Çapkin, the runner debuts with a straightforward setup. Breeding by Fatih Ağa out of Eğil Gülü suggests a traditional profile, and a clean run from the middle draw can see him acquit himself well.

Drawn barrier 9 and partnered by M.kaya for Y.öztaş, the runner resumes without disclosed recent form. With breeding by Gümşgümbür out of Kukla, she presents as a lightly exposed type, and a measured market watch is advised.

Third-up and drawn well in barrier 3, Nilperi brings recent 1400m form including a 3rd at Bursa in a 3Y MDN F (13 runners) two weeks ago. She also boxed on for 4th over 1200m at Istanbul earlier this prep, and her distance record (2:0-0-1) suggests this trip suits. Measured claims if she holds that level.

Placed 3rd twice over 1400m at Kocaeli and Izmir in August/September, showing he handles this trip. Since then he’s finished 8th of 21 and 7th of 9 in Istanbul before an 11th at Bursa two weeks ago, but draws better here with a barrier improvement from 13 to 8. Capable of sharper showing back from that wide-gate run.

Fourth-up and on a 10-day turnaround, she draws barrier 2 after settling well back and finishing 14th of 14 over 1400m at Istanbul in a 3Y MDN on 9 Oct. Prior runs were 10th/12 over 1400m (AR) and 8th/9 over 1200m (3Y COND), all on GOOD, and she now returns with 52kg having previously carried up to 57kg. Inside draw and a lighter impost could help her find a more economical run.
