Resentment with stock market debut — large one — in part of Turkey (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gallipoli

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'part of turkey' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'resentment with stock market debut large one' is the wordplay.
'resentment' becomes 'gall' (synonyms).
'with stock market debut' becomes 'ipo' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'large' becomes 'L' (eg in clothes sizes).
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'gall'+'ipo'+'l'+'i'='GALLIPOLI'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
