Izmir Race 7 - Race 7

BURNING HEART (3) is third-up and brings sharp recent Izmir form, backing up 7 days after a 2nd over 2000m (TB) with 61kg; that fitness and proven trip make him the one. STAR SWORD (2) maps well second-up with an improved barrier (9 to 4) and owns a 1900m Izmir win in April, while KRAL AYVALIK (1) draws barrier 1 and has a solid (Izmir, 1900) record of 3:1-1, including a 1900m win here in August. YOU ARE BIG (4) is a 1900m winner at the track this prep and comes from barrier 2, adding depth to the chances.

Draws the inside after a solid 3rd over 2200m at Izmir 20 days ago, and he already owns a 1900m win at this track this prep. Strong local profile with a (Izmir, 1900) record of (3:1-1-0) and a this season mark of (3:1-1-1). From barrier 1 and reunited with K. Tokaçoğlu, his consistent Izmir record suggests he can be competitive again.

Proven at Izmir and this trip, with a (Izmir, 1900) record of (1:1-0-0) and two wins from five at the track. Second up after 26 days, he draws barrier 4 (improved from 9 last start) and reunites with M. M. Bilgin, with whom he has a win from two rides. Solid platform to hold a handy spot and run well back at a suitable setup.

Third-up and on a 7-day turnaround after a 2nd at Izmir over 2000m on 17 Sep (TB, 61kg), chasing home Call To Warrior, following a 3rd there over 1600m on 10 Sep. CurrentTrack record reads (12:1-3-2), and the rider-jockey combination has been reliable (CurrentJockey 7:1-3-1). Consistent recent efforts suggest the set-up suits from barrier 6.

Proven at Izmir 1900m with a (2:1-0-0) record at the track and trip, including a 1900m win on 8 Aug (GOOD) under Onur Atmaca from barrier 2. He returns from 33 days off and draws barrier 2 again, with the jockey-trainer combo 1:1-0-0; that recent win and favourable gate give him a solid platform.

Third-up and drawn well in barrier 3, Apollo Maximus returns to Izmir where his record stands at (8:2-2-1). He scored over 1400m here on 3 Sep (TB, GOOD) with N. Avci up, and the same rider has a solid record aboard (2:1-0-0). With a favourable gate and proven track affinity, he looks set to run well again.

Second-up after a 4th of 11 at Izmir over 1600m 14 days ago from barrier 10, and he draws better in 7 here with a 300m rise in trip. Prior Bursa form includes a 2100m 3rd on GOOD3 and a 1400m win on GOOD, suggesting the distance range suits. With that recent run under the belt and a handier barrier, the setup looks favourable for the runner.

Back on a short turnaround after a 3rd of 9 at Izmir on 19 Sep over 1200m (TB), drawn wide in 7 and carrying 52kg behind No Brakes and Sellygirl. Faces a significant 700m rise in trip today from a handier barrier 5, with the same trainer but a new rider booked. Track form is positive with that Izmir placing, so a repeat of that effort would keep the runner in the mix.
