MELIAN THE MAIA (11) finished second over 1600m at this track at her most recent appearance on November 13. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. SER VEYRON (4) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fourth over 1700m at Osmangazi. Has a solid record at the third run in and is capable of sharp improvement. LA JEFA (9) last appeared a week-and-a-half ago over 1400m at Veliefendi when she finished ninth. This is her first run for the Huseyin Atas stable. Has found the right race and is worth including. ALLY SUE (5) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1300m at Yesiloba, beaten 2 lengths into sixth. The engagement of Muslum Celik is a positive move. Nicely placed to find some form.
