Izmir Race 8 - Race 8
TOPLUSER (1) brings the strongest recent maiden form and is on a short turnaround, with 2nd at Bursa over 1200m on 9 Oct and a prior 2nd at Bursa 1300m; maps well from barrier 3 with 60kg. KALEMLI ŞAHI (10) is a danger after a 2nd at Izmir over 1400m on 3 Oct carrying 52kg and now drops 200m to 1200m with 55kg. MUKATOVIÇ (5) has solid Izmir 1200m maiden credentials this prep (2nd on 12 Sep, then 4th on 26 Sep) and can figure despite barrier 12. From the inside draw, KÖPRÜCEK (11) can be competitive after finishing 6th at Izmir 1400m on 8 Oct and now drops 200m with 52kg.

On a short turnaround and back to Bursa, he was runner-up in a 3Y MDN over 1200m eight days ago carrying 58kg, and also filled 2nd over 1300m here in August. The barrier improves to 3 and he rises to 60kg, with a handy distance record (2:0-1-1) and a placing at this track and trip. Solid each-way prospects if he holds that recent maiden form.

Second-up after a 70-day break, the runner resumes off a debut 7th of 9 over 1200m at Izmir when carrying 57kg from the inside gate. Faces a wide barrier shift from 1 to 9, with the same weight on today, and can strip fitter for the experience at the track and trip.

On a short turnaround after finishing 8th of 9 over 1600m at Izmir seven days ago, he now drops 400m which aligns better with his 1200m profile that includes a 2nd in a 3Y MDN there on 12 Sep. The wide barrier 12 is a fresh challenge, but consistent Izmir and trip stats suggest he can be competitive if he finds a handy spot.

Fourth-up and back to 1200m, he has already run 2nd at this trip at Kocaeli on 23 Jun carrying 57kg on GOOD ground behind Aslan İbo. He returns from an 85-day break with 57kg again and a wider barrier 11 after drawing 7 last time at Bursa over 1400m, where he finished 4th of 10. Fitness off the freshen is the query, but his prior 1200m effort reads well for this setup.

Second-up after a 9-day turnaround, the runner comes off an 11th of 13 over 1400m at Izmir (AR) carrying 54kg. Earlier Izmir form at 1000–1100m included a 3rd of 8 behind Latife Sultan and Rüzgar İzi, and today’s 200m drop in trip looks a positive setup. Track record reads 5:0-0-1, so a minor placing wouldn’t shock if he recaptures that shorter-trip effort.

On a short turnaround after finishing 7th of 13 over 1400m at Izmir on 8 Oct in AR class, and now drops 200m with barrier 8 after drawing 3 last time. Best recent effort was 4th of 14 in a 3Y MDN over 1200m at Izmir on 26 Sep carrying 51kg. Consistent exposure at the track and trip suggests a honest showing if he reproduces that 1200m run.

Closed off for 2nd at Izmir over 1400m (AR) 14 days ago under 52kg from barrier 4, finishing behind Maceraperest, and retains the same rider-jockey combination record of 1:0-1-0. Drops 200m and rises to 55kg from barrier 6, with a consistent track profile this season (4:0-1-0). That last run suggests he’s heading the right way and can be competitive again with a similar trip.

Third-up and on a short turnaround, he draws the inside after barriers 14 and 8 at Izmir. He was 5th of 15 over 1200m on 26 Sep (55kg) then 6th of 13 over 1400m on 8 Oct (54kg) in AR grade, and now drops to 52kg while coming back to 1200m. The softer draw and lighter weight give him a chance to hold a handier spot and improve.

Fourth-up and on a short turnaround after finishing 13th of 13 in an AR 1400m at Izmir on 8 Oct, with 53kg from barrier 7 behind Çenger. Earlier ran 11th/14 and 8th/9 in 3Y MDN 1200m races at Izmir, both on good ground. Drops 200m and 2kg to 51kg and draws barrier 10; needs to lift but the lighter weight and distance drop may help.
