Tampa Bay Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
SMITHWICK'S SPICE (3) returns from a layoff of seven months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1106m at Monmouth Park Turf. Expect him to play a major role. POWER ATTACK (1) missed the frame two starts ago on the dirt at Tampa Bay Downs but followed that with a win, also on dirt, at Tampa Bay Downs over 1207m five-and-a-half weeks ago. Hard to fault as he chases another win. Expected to feature. BAHAMIAN MOON (5) stuck on well last start to finish second over 1207m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) after showing good early speed. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. ROCKET DRAGON (7) finished 7 lengths behind the winner in fifth place when resuming over 1207m last start at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Second up record is sound. Should be much improved.

Comes off a 40 day let-up. Most recently won by 0.5 len at Tampa Bay Downs March 13 over 1207m defeating Rainbow's Pride carrying 53.5kg at $8.50. The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily second last of 7 at Tampa Bay Downs on January 18 over 1646m, 11 len behind Cupid's Dude with 56kg at $1.90. Great chance to win again.
