Izmir Race 3 - Race 3
ESENCE (7) appeals most with consistent Izmir figures and a 2nd at this trip, bringing reliable recent placings on GOOD going. DREAM OF ANGEL (8) is a danger from the inside draw after a strong 2nd over 1400m here and gets in light at 52kg stepping to 1600m. KUNTA (9) is progressive with 2nd and 3rd at 1200m here and a handy 52kg, worth including up in trip. GOLDEN BEST (3) can run well second up after a close 4th over 1400m and a soft map from barrier 2, but the slight edge goes to ESENCE (7).

Fourth up and stays at Izmir after a 5th of 10 over 1400m on 31 Oct on GOOD. Steps to 1600m, which could suit at this stage of the prep. A. Küründük sticks and draws on recent local experience. A measured chance to improve with the extra trip.

Second up after finishing 9th of 12 over 1200m at Izmir on 3 Oct, and steps to 1600m which could suit better. Stays at Izmir and is partnered by O. Atmaca for E. Ayhan. Baturtay looks a chance to be more competitive with the rise in trip.

Second up after finishing 7th of 8 over 1400m at Izmir on 22 Oct on GOOD. Steps to 1600m, which could suit at this stage of the prep. H. Şimşek sticks and keeps him in familiar surroundings at Izmir. Low-key return but the extra trip gives him a chance to improve.

Placed twice from three runs at Izmir and has three thirds on good ground, so the track and surface suit. Steps to 1600m after a 7th of 11 over 1400m at Bursa on 12 Oct, which can bring improvement. With B.M. Mirik booked, Arrow Storm has enough local profile to be competitive.

Placed in 3 of last 5 and has been reliable at Izmir (4:0-2-1). Ran 2nd of 10 over 1200m here on 24 Oct on GOOD and earlier 2nd of 8 over this 1600m on 1 Oct, so the mile holds no fears. Also handles GOOD with a (5:0-2-1) record. Consistent local form gives Esence a genuine chance to be in the finish.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and comes off a 2nd of 9 over 1200m at Izmir on 24 Oct on GOOD ground. Draws better from barrier 4 and drops to 52kg since that run. Has also filled a placing in 2 of 3 rides with Y. Gökçe for Sey. Gökçe. Set-up looks favourable for Kunta to give another honest account at 1600m.

Drops 6kg to 51kg and stretches to 1600m after finishing 6th of 9 over 1300m at Istanbul on 11 Oct on GOOD. Light weight gives B. Bülbül options, and the set-up looks kinder. Ninja Queen can improve with the rise in trip.

Back to 1600m at Izmir after finishing 8th of 9 over 1400m on 31 Oct on GOOD, having been 6th of 9 at this track and trip on 1 Oct. Sticks to the same surface and venue with R. Ketme booked for E. Ergünay. Needs to lift on those two juvenile runs, but the return to this distance offers a more familiar setup.

Only one run so far, finishing 4th of 9 over 1200m at Izmir on 24 Oct on GOOD ground. Steps to 1600m and drops 2kg to 55kg, which could help. Mer. Çelik rides for A. Özmüş. The Legacy has a lightly raced profile and the set-up gives scope to progress.
