VENETIAN CHOICE (12) is back from a break of six-and-a-half months. Sat on the pace at her only start and held on well for third over 5½f at Pakenham. Fitter for a trial win at Cranbourne. Likely improver and looks well placed to be in the finish again. RATHLIN EXPRESS (3) finished second, beaten 1. 3 lengths, over 5½f at Sale on debut four-and-a-half months ago and has been kept under wraps since. Drawn out a bit but can feature again. PATH TO PROFIT (10) will find this a little easier after a solid run in city grade last time, finishing fourth at Sandown-Hillside. Likely to relish the extra ground and rates among the main chances. JUSTIBELLA (9) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing third and beaten 1. 3 lengths over 6f at this track. Has upside and worth including.
