Wagga Race 9 - Settlers Village Waratah Heat
A LIL BIT OF LOVE (2) drew on the back row and had to work last start so prepared to overlook that result. Had only gone under by a nose in the previous attempt. Can show her best from the good draw. SHE HAUNTS EM (7) toughed out a win in a higher-graded race here three back and was good when edged out narrowly from a similar draw to this last time. Big chance. DONNIE MAC (9) has had five weeks off since he was checked and broke last start but has won a trial in that time. The prior form was good and he draws for a trail. Contender. JUST ROCK ME LOU NZ (5) draws wider but deserves respect off the last-start win at this circuit and distance.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Backing up quickly after 5th (Sr1) over 1730m at Bathurst, beaten 11 m by Sweet Nate (2:05.20) in NR up to 48 on June 18 at $18. At the previous start 8th (Sr3) over 1720m after racing wide at Dubbo beaten 15 m by Shell Shock (2:04.20) in NR up to 60 on May 30 at $4.20. Has a low draw this time and expected to atone.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr5) over 1740m at this track, beaten 18 m by Business In Heaven (2:03.10) in NR up to 57 on June 6 at $26. Two runs back won by a head when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (2:45.10) beating Tizzy Lizzie in NR 53 to 57 on May 30 at $26. Might find this a bit tough.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after showing early speed, behind Crocodile Socks at this track over 2270m in a NR up to 58 on May 23 at $7. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Just Rock Me Lou at this track over 1740m in a NR up to 55 on June 10 at $3.30. Top contender.
