About
Venus Shock is a 4yo bay mare trained by Ben, Will & Jd Hayes at Flemington. She is by the stallion Shocking out of the dam Bharani. To date she has recorded one win, the highlight coming on 4 Aug 2026 at Bairnsdale when she captured the $32,000 Maiden Plate. Punters have found her profitable; a career‑long backing would have yielded a 40% return on investment.
