Kocaeli Race 7 - Race 7
BERKALI (1) appeals first up after winning his only start over 1200m at Bursa on 25/05, scoring on Good with 55kg and the same jockey, and now draws barrier 2 with 56kg. AURORA BY (4) won over 1200m here on 16/07 and returns to that trip from 1400m, with solid track-and-distance stats. ASRAL (6) is on a short turnaround after a 2nd in a 1500m 3Y MDN here on 13/08 and drops 2kg to 55kg coming back 300m. KÜÇÜK HASO (3) maps in the mix fourth up, a Kocaeli 1000m winner in April and back 300m from 1500m last start.

Unbeaten at 1200m and on good ground, scoring on debut at Bursa over 1200m (Good) when first-up, 55kg, from barrier 6 with E Akpinar aboard. Returns first-up again after 87 days with 56kg and a softer draw in barrier 2, sticking with the same rider-trainer combination that is 1:1-0-0. Solid profile to resume well under similar conditions.

Returns from a 49-day break with a recent prep that includes a 1300m Istanbul win two starts back, beating Tankizi, before 6th at Kocaeli over 1200m on Good. Steps out from barrier 9 and carries 57kg; unplaced in two 1200m attempts and at this track-trip, so will need to lift to replicate that 1300m form.

Fourth-up and back 300m, he returns to 1200m at his preferred Kocaeli track where he’s 1:1-0-0. Last start he was 5th of 15 over 1500m at Kocaeli (57kg) and now drops to 56kg with a wider barrier (8) after drawing 2 there, which could suit the sharper trip. Honest profile at the venue suggests he can be competitive back in distance.

Winner over 1200m at Kocaeli three starts back and owns a (CurrentTrack, 1200) record of (2:1-0-0). Back to 1200m here with 58kg after carrying 55kg when 6th over 1400m 21 days ago, and draws barrier 5 after wider gates in recent runs. Proven at the trip and track, so a rebound at this setup wouldn’t surprise.

Returns to 1200m after a 9th of 15 over 1500m at Kocaeli 14 days ago, and drops 1kg to 54kg. Won at this track over 1000m in April on good going and has a positive barrier profile (2 runs between barriers 4-6 for 1 win). With a prior win at the venue and a short turnaround, a competitive showing is within reach.

Back on a short turnaround after a 2nd at Kocaeli on 13 Aug over 1500m in a 3Y MDN, splitting the pair behind Mestan when carrying 57kg from barrier 2. Drops 2kg to 55kg and shortens 300m, with C Tepe staying on, but the 1200m record (3:0-0-0) and track/distance stats offer limited encouragement. Place claims if he can hold that latest form at the shorter trip.

Resumes after 3 months and drops to 52kg, with a handy draw in barrier 3. Last prep ended with a 4th of 5 over 1200m at Istanbul (56kg) behind Kervan Sancağı, having earlier finished 10th of 11 over 1000m at Bursa. Light weight and soft draw give scope to improve first up.

On a short turnaround after finishing 7th over 1500m at Kocaeli (3Y MDN) seven days ago with 57kg, he drops to 54kg and draws the inside barrier. Best recent effort was a 4th over 1400m here from barrier 1 on good going. Back to 1200m and the weight relief may help him hold a position from the gate.

Second-up after a 78-day break, he drops to 55kg and draws barrier 4 after debuting from 11. On debut at Istanbul over 1200m (Good) he finished 7th of 9 with 57kg behind Serdivan. The softer draw and lighter weight offer scope for improvement at the trip.
