Race Tip
BUCKS FIZZ (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a lay-off two starts back then was beaten 2 lengths when fourth over 5f at Eagle Farm two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Has the class to put the recent run of form behind her. BEEN A SECRET (5) fought on for second last start over 6f at Ipswich when she worked home in great style, making it two minor placings in a row. Might have to give away a start from this draw. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. HOLLYWOOD EPIC (2) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when second over 6f at Warwick when he was always up in the leading division. Going up a level this time but he can win if at his best. OPTIMUS MAXIMUS (4) was beaten 13 lengths into fifth over 6f at this track last time out. Well placed to make amends.
