Istanbul Race 7 - Race 7
MIHRA FARAH (4) sets a strong standard with back-to-back 1400m wins at this track and profile-perfect figures at the trip. TOUCH OF GLORY (5) looks the main danger, already a 1400m winner here and arriving off a solid 3rd over 1500m. KINZHAL (2) has been consistent and was 2nd over 1400m last start, but needs to rebound from a prior Istanbul miss at the trip. BAMBI BAMBO (3) is unbeaten in two and draws to get every chance, though both wins came at Bursa. Leaning to MIHRA FARAH (4) to keep the 1400m streak going.

Placed 2nd of 6 over this 1400m at Istanbul on 18 Sep on soft, and has a solid local profile (8:1-4-0). From similar barriers (4-6) reads well with 3:1-1-0. Cose Della Vita stays in the same grade and maps to get a similar run to his recent efforts. Honest claims back to 1400m at this track.

Placed in 4 of the last 5 and brings consistent juvenile form. Latest run was 2nd of 4 over 1400m at Ankara on 15 Oct, sticking to the trip. Prior Istanbul effort at this distance on 25 Sep came on soft going and yielded 8th of 9, so a return to this track asks for improvement. With H. Karataş booked and 1 win, 2 seconds this season (4:1-2-0), Kinzhal has the profile to be competitive.

Third up and arrives off a 1st of 4 at Bursa over 1500m on 22 Oct. Stays in the same grade and comes back slightly to 1400m. M. Çiçek sticks for M. Türkoğlu. Bambi Bambo has a tidy platform to hold form here.

Fourth up and thriving, with won 2 of last 3. Scored at Istanbul over 1400m on 14 Oct (1st of 8) after a prior 1400m Istanbul win on 13 Sep (1st of 13), both on good ground. Boasts a strong local record (3:2-1-0). Holds solid claims for Ö. Yildirim and G. Sütcü at this trip and track.

Proven at Istanbul with a strong record (4:2-0-1) and has placed in 2 of last 3. Won over 1400m here on 13 Sep and then was 3rd of 7 over 1500m on 1 Nov. Stays in the same grade. Solid credentials to be competitive again at this trip.

Holds Istanbul experience, including 6th of 13 over 1400m on 13 Sep and 4th of 7 over 1500m on 1 Nov, both on good ground. Back to 1400m and stays in the same grade, which looks a sensible set-up. With A. Yildiz booked, profiles as a quiet improver in a small field.
