Sanliurfa Race 2 - Race 2
LION OF THE NORTH (1) maps as the one to beat third up, coming off a Sanliurfa 1400m win on 28/09 (TB, barrier 1) a week ago and now drops 200m with the same jockey and an inside draw. LOVESICK GRILS (4) is a key danger with a Sanliurfa 1200m win on 14/09 (TB) and draws barrier 2 after scoring from barrier 5. MAYBE FOR US (5) arrives in form after winning at Diyarbakir 1200m on 26/09 (TB) from barrier 12 and now draws 5. TEPEKIZI (2) has consistent metro juvenile form and a softer gate (barrier 3) after recent 1500m runs, and can be around the mark back to 1200m. Something for the Multiples: LOVESICK GRILS (4) DAUGHTER OF VICTOR (3)

Comes third-up on a short turnaround after a Sanliurfa 1400m TB win from barrier 1 last week with 57kg, having placed 2nd over 1200m there on debut. Stays at Sanliurfa, drops 200m and rises to 58.5kg, and draws the inside again; his record at the track (2:1-1) and with this rider (2:1-1) reads well for another forward showing.

Drops 300m after a 4th of 5 at Bursa over 1500m (TB) 14 days ago, and rises 3.5kg to 58.5kg. Proven at today’s trip with a distance record of (3:1-0-1) and perfect at the track-distance (1:1-0-0), and draws well in barrier 3. That profile suggests she can be competitive back in journey.

Consistent at 1200m this prep with 2nd at Elazig on 24 Aug (GOOD) carrying 59kg behind Aşan Star, then 4th at Elazig on 31 Aug (GOOD) with 57.5kg. Draws barrier 4 again and reunites with Yunus Çelikbaş, whose partnership has produced 1 win, 1 second and 2 thirds from 10 rides. Honest type around this trip and in the mix for a placing.

Proven at this track and trip, having won over 1200m at Sanliurfa on 14 Sep (TB, 58kg), with İvar the runner-up. Consistent this season (3:1-0-2) and draws barrier 2 after a wider gate last time; the setup looks suitable for another forward showing.

Comes here off a last-start 1200m win at Diyarbakir on 26 Sep (TB, 12 runners) from barrier 12, beating Pearl Grain, and is on a short turnaround at 9 days. Consistent this season (4:1-1-0) with L. Taptik aboard, and draws better in barrier 5 after that wide gate success. Well set up to hold form at the trip given the recent 2nd and win at 1200m.

On a short turnaround and fourth-up, he drops 7kg to 50kg and draws better from barrier 6 after working from 13 when 7th over 1400m at Sanliurfa last week. His prior two runs were 10th and 8th at 1200m, so the slight step back in trip may help. With the lighter weight and improved gate, a sharper showing is within reach.
