Slick pace with Secret Hell finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. Competitive. BODY OF VENUS (5) returned from a spell with a strong win in a 56 over 1100m at Horsham. He'd switched from the McEvoy stable and has been off the scene for 261 days. Is sure to have taken improvement and is proven second-up. Has John Allen aboard today and can go back-to-back. BURLEIGH (8) won his Maiden easily over 1206m at Terang as expected and then went back and was beaten 1.4L in a 56 over the same distance. Has the rail today and carries 3kg less. Coffey rides for the first time, and he's a decent chance to bounce. JUST BOLTS (3) peaks off a long neck defeat over 1000m at Yarra Valley, this level. Keeps improving and will position forward. MARTY MCFLY (2) caught the eye late last start and should be strong again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Body Of Venus.
