WOLF OF PROTI (8) was narrowly beaten last start when third in a small field over 1400m at Veliefendi at the first run of the campaign. Muhammed Mir Bilgin who has scored on him three times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. ISPANOZ (3) did a good job last start to finish second at this track over 1400m, beaten 0.7 lengths. Has a solid record at this circuit. Leading contender. DRAGON BLUE (2) did a good job last start to finish third at this track over 1500m, beaten 0.8 lengths. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and two minor placings from five starts. Capable of going well. DIDI LAZI (5) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 6 lengths away in sixth over 1500m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
