NZ - Te Rapa - Race 5

LITTLE BIT OF LOVE (2) just missed out by a nose here 3 weeks ago, and all of his 3 starts this prep have all been strong efforts on this track. He is in a good space, and as long as the tracks are heavy, he is always a winning chance. CLEAT (5) had to work too hard from a wide gate here last start, and understandably weakened. He has a chance to find the front here from a far superior draw, and he can bounce back into form at some value. GOSPODIN (6) was brave in defeat at Ellerslie a fortnight ago, and he is well overdue for another win. Stick with him for all top 4 combos. REWARD SMILE (7) strips fitter second up, and he has winning claims from the pole position. JETHRO TULL (9) was strong fresh up when third, and he can figure in the top 3 again here.
