Kocaeli Race 6 - Race 6
MELONCITTO (3) looks the one after winning at Kocaeli over 1400m on 6 Aug from barrier 1, now fourth-up and draws barrier 1 again with strong good-track stats. ARASINKO (4) is the danger with two Kocaeli wins in July and a last-start 3rd at Istanbul over 1300m. RED VICTORY (6) brings current course/1500m form after winning here over 1500m on 1 Sep and drops from 61kg to 57kg. STEEL WINGS (7) ties in through that same 1 Sep race when 2nd over 1500m and gets a 5kg weight drop to 54kg.

Started the prep with a 2nd in the 2Y GROUP 3 at Istanbul (1200m) before a 3rd in a 2Y COND at Bursa carrying 60kg, and now comes in off two unplaced Istanbul runs. He’s on a short turnaround (9 days), drops 3kg to 60kg today from last start’s 57kg is incorrect; actually weight_change is +3kg—so he rises to 60kg—and draws better moving from barrier 10 to 7. Solid earlier juvenile placings suggest he can be competitive if he recaptures that mid-prep form.

Consistent juvenile with a strong good-track profile (6:1-4-0) and two seconds from three runs at the current track/jockey combo. Comes off a 4th of 6 at Bursa over 1200m (57kg) and was runner-up at Kocaeli 1400m prior; now rises 2kg to 59kg and drops 300m in trip from that run. Solid claims if he holds that recent level.

Comes in fourth-up with wins at Bursa 1100m (Good) and Kocaeli 1400m, both carrying 57kg, and now rises to 58kg from barrier 1. Last start at Kocaeli he scored over 1400m from gate 1 with Görkem Özçelik aboard, maintaining a perfect record with this rider and trainer. Proven on Good and drawn to advantage again, he profiles as a solid chance to hold form.

Proven at the track with a strong record (CurrentTrack: 3:2-0-0) and the current jockey has delivered a win and a placing from two rides. Last start at Istanbul over 1300m (TB) he finished 3rd of 6 behind Egoista on Good going, and he now rises 2kg to 57kg while stretching 200m. With barrier 4 and solid recent form, he looks well set to be competitive again.

Three-time winner at Kocaeli on good going, including 1100m and 1000m successes earlier in the prep. Latest run 40 days ago was 5th of 7 over 1400m at Kocaeli with 57kg; now drops 100m and draws barrier 5 with B. Akçay sticking. Proven at the track and set-up looks more suitable.

Progressive 2YO who scored at Kocaeli over 1500m (TB) two weeks ago from barrier 3, carrying 61kg on Good and edging Steel Wings. Back to 57kg from the low draw of 2 and stays at a track where he’s 1:1-0 at the trip and 2:1-1 overall. Well set up to hold form on the short turnaround.

Ultra-consistent at Kocaeli with three 2nds from three runs, including over 1500m, and returns off a 14‑day turnaround. Drops from 59kg to 54kg and draws barrier 3, with A. Yildiz back aboard after partnering its 2nd in a 2Y MDN here. Genuine chance to be in the finish again based on this profile.

Third-up and on a short turnaround (7 days), he drops to 53kg and draws barrier 6 after carrying 57kg from gate 7 over 1400m at Kocaeli last week. Earlier this prep he was 6th of 12 in a 1200m 2YF MDN at Kocaeli on good going. The weight relief and slight barrier improvement offer some help as he looks to lift a winless record at the track and on good ground.
