About
Tara Koda is a 4yo brown mare from Australia trained by John Shelton in Grafton. She is by Divine Prophet out of Sahara Chill. To date she has recorded two victories. On 6 Jun 2026 at Grafton she captured her biggest win, taking the $30,000 Country Boosted BM 58 Handicap. Punters have found her to be a consistent money‑maker; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 76% ROI.
