Ankara Race 6

Race 6

Stake: -

BROTHER LOVIE (2) appeals most, coming off wins at Istanbul 1400m on 24 Jun (58kg) and Ankara 1600m on 6 Jun, and he is unbeaten at 1200m (1/1) with a solid record partnering MÜSLÜM ÇELİK. KALI STRATA (4) defeated FOR FREEDOM (3) at Ankara 1400m on 2 Jul (carrying 52kg) and was 3rd here at 1200m on 5 May, so the drop back in trip holds no fears. FOR FREEDOM (3) was runner-up to that rival on 2 Jul and brings consistent Ankara form this prep. YAKARI (1) draws barrier 2; he was 4th of 17 at Istanbul 1400m on 28 Jun (58kg) and has a 1200m win this season.

Comments

Arrives off back-to-back wins, most recently at Istanbul over 1400m in 3Y company on 24 Jun with 58kg, having previously scored at Ankara over 1600m, defeating Zimbatron and Traidora respectively. Drops 200m and is unbeaten at 1200m, including at this track/distance (1:1-0-0). With a strong 13:4-3-3 jockey-trainer partnership, he looks well placed to hold form.

Runner-up at Ankara over 1400m (3Y HCP) on 2 Jul, carrying 50kg from barrier 6 on a FAST track behind Kali Strata. Drops 200m to 1200m and is yet to place at the trip (2:0-0-0), but the overall Ankara record is solid (8:2-1-2). Draws barrier 1 with V.abiş and can run well if the shorter trip suits.

Drops back 200m to 1200m at Ankara, a track/trip where he’s placed in both runs to date (track-distance (2:0-0-2)), and he draws barrier 4. Although unplaced at 1400m and 2200m lately, his season record (12:5-2-0) is strong, and this return to his proven setup gives him a chance to improve.

Placed at the course and trip, running 2nd at Ankara over 1200m on 5 May when runner-up to Giralamo. Drops 700m from a 1900m run 38 days ago and draws barrier 3 after barrier 5 last start; Sal.çelik has a 3:1-0-0 record aboard, so this looks a suitable set-up for a competitive showing.

Drops back 200m to 1200m, a trip where he’s (6:3-1-0). Comes off a 3rd of 13 at Istanbul over 1400 on 8 Jul (55kg, GOOD) behind Income and Serahira, and on the 6‑day turnaround his recent 1200m second at Bursa on 1 Jun behind Organization reads well.
