Verdict

OKANUI BEACH (4) made a winning return in a higher-graded race at his latest appearance at Shepparton, pushing to the front from a wider draw and getting home by 1.2 metres. That continued his strong form from last campaign that included an easy win the only time he raced here. Take beating. AROMET GIRL (2) is in good form at this circuit, twice finishing runner-up before last week's fourth in stronger company. Draws to make an impact. TUKAHA (1) has come from wider barriers to place in three of his last four starts here so is right in contention from the inside draw. MAGINOT LINE (9) has claims off a win here three back.
