Races MRP Istanbul - TUR

Resuming. Only had one start last campaign ran second last of 9 at Sirinyer All Weather on August 1 over 2000m, 29 len behind Little Joe carrying 62kg at $21.25. First up last campaign ran second last of 7 at Antalya on December 9 over 2100m, 36 len behind King Of Munzur with 60kg at $13.20. Not good enough for these.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 3rd of 12 at this track on October 4 over 2000m, 7 len behind Modern Warrior with 57kg at $18.50. The start before that 3rd of 8 at this track on September 16 over 2000m, 3.5 len behind Extensive carrying 60kg at $4.70. Best form should see him measure right up.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up ran last of 9 at Sirinyer All Weather on September 19 over 1200m, 46 len behind No Brakes with 56kg at $3.95. Second run from a spell ran last of 7 at Yil All Weather on October 15 over 2000m, 71 len behind Age Of Discovery carrying 57.5kg at $6.45. Prepared to just watch today.

Recent form sound. Last start made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 8 at this track on October 14 over 2000m, 0.3 len behind Valtrox with 57kg at $1.55. The run before that 2nd in a small field at Veliefendi on September 30 over 2100m, 2.25 len behind Ghost Commander carrying 57kg at $3.05. Winning chance.

Most recently 5th of 12 at this track on October 4 over 2000m, 9 len behind Modern Warrior carrying 56kg at $21. The race before that 6th of 8 at this track on September 18 over 2200m, 10 len behind Real Trouble carrying 56kg at $10.50. Needs plenty of luck.

Last start ran second last of 10 at this track on October 2 over 1200m, 21 len behind Makul carrying 57kg at $12.50. The run before that won by 1.0 len at this track on September 23 over 1500m defeating Cucurella with 57kg at $10.75. Cannot be ruled out despite a moderate effort last time.

First-up. Finished off last preparation when last of 8 at Veliefendi August 12 over 2200m, 41 len behind Hard Lion with 52kg at $85.15. First up last campaign second last of 12 at this track July 5 over 1400m, 26 len behind The Butcher carrying 52kg at $81.60. May need the run.

Comes off a 30 day let-up. Most recently 4th of 11 at this track on September 23 over 1500m, 2 len behind Look News carrying 55kg at $5.85. The start before that 6th of 8 at this track on August 23 over 1500m, 6 len behind Make A Fire with 56kg at $32.70. Thereabouts last start and looks a definite winning hope.

Second run back. Comes off a 37-day let-up. First-up after six months ran last of 9 at Veliefendi on September 16 over 1300m, in the wet; 61 len behind Thrace Fever with 52kg at $79.90. Previously second-up ran second last of 14 at this track on March 25 over 1500m, 45 len behind Celebrimbor with 50kg at $33. Unlikely to threaten.
