Shepparton Race 9

Sportsbet Green Ticks (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

ORIENTAL ESTELLA (3) shows ability but remains a maiden after six starts. Is better than last start when out of the placings, finishing sixth (22.87) at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MAGIC FLUX (2) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (23.15) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Rates a winning chance on best. MISS BARBIE (1) is overdue for a maiden success having placed at six of 21 starts and finishing in the money again at Bendigo. Returns to a favourable course. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from four starts. Bold showing expected. BERRINGA BLACK (7) is worth some thought after a surprise placing last start.
