Izmir Race 6

Race 6

Stake: -

DISTANCE RUNNER (3) appeals from barrier 2 with a strong 2000m profile (3 wins, 2 seconds at Izmir 2000) and a better alley after drawing 10 when 6th over 2100m here 12 days ago. VOLPI (2) is second up and back to 2000m where he won at Izmir in April (61kg), and reunites with a jockey he has placed with multiple times. CANENCAN (1) maps well from barrier 4 and has solid Izmir 2000 figures (1 win, 3 seconds from 8), including a 2nd over 2000m here in June. NORTHERN SHOT (4) draws the inside and owns a 3-from-9 record at the Izmir 2000, third up and back to a suitable trip.

Comments

Second-up off a 1400m Izmir run 14 days ago, he now stretches to 2000m where he owns a solid record (9:2-1-2) and is a past Izmir 2000m winner. Barrier 7 is within his effective alley range and the current jockey partnership has been consistently competitive (25:2-7-2). Proven at today’s trip and track, he profiles to improve with the rise in distance.

Comments

Proven at Izmir 2000m with a strong track-distance record (9:3-2-0) and draws well in barrier 2 after jumping from 10 last time. Comes back from a Group 3 2000m run where he was 11th with 60kg and then finished 6th over 2100m; today’s slight drop back in trip and 56.5kg look more suitable. With a prior 2nd from one ride for this jockey-trainer combo, he has the setup to improve.

Comments

Returns to 2000m where he’s 3-from-9 at Izmir and draws the inside barrier, a gate range he’s handled well (barriers 1-3: 8:4-0-0). Third-up after two 9th-place runs over shorter trips, with 60kg a consideration but today’s set-up is more in his wheelhouse.

Proven at Izmir 2000m (8:2-2-0) and returns first up after 6 months, with a solid prep record (4:1-1-0). Best recent effort was 2nd at Izmir over 2000m on 29 Jan (SOFT) from barrier 11 under 53kg behind Obrada in a 15-runner field. Drawn 6 this time and the track-distance profile suggests he can be competitive fresh.

Comments

Second-up after a 1400m Izmir run 14 days ago from a wide gate, he now stretches 600m to 2000m from barrier 5. The step to this trip suits on paper given a 2000m win on his distance card and a solid overall record from barriers 4-6 (11:1-6-3). Measured chance if the rise in trip brings improvement.

Proven at 2000m (13:2-2-1) and holds a second at Izmir this season, including a 2nd over 2100m in 3UP COND on 15 Aug behind Mr Monk. Comes here off 33 days with a slight drop in trip from 2100m and an improved barrier to 9 from 6 last time; capable of figuring with a repeat of that penultimate run.

Draws barrier 3 after racing from gate 8 last start, a meaningful improvement in the run. Recent Izmir efforts include 8th over 1600m on 19 Sep and a better 5th over 1900m on 27 Jun, both on GOOD going. With a 400m step up in trip and a handy draw, a cleaner passage could see him hold a position and finish closer.

Third at Izmir over 1600m two starts back gives a recent glimpse of form before a 10th over 2100m 12 days ago. Drops slightly in trip to 2000m where he’s placed twice from six and draws barrier 8, with E. Akpinar taking over. Mixed recent results but the setup is not without hope at this distance.
