What a fantastic way to finish the 2017/18 Racing Season for BENNETT RACING with FLYING INFERNO winning at Newcastle on July 31st.
It was a gutsy effort from the little girl coming from the 2nd outside barrier, circling the field then bursting away before holding on for a very courageous win. She won the 900m scamper in a quick time of 53.68 secs with the last 600m in 34.22 secs – made even more meritorious in that she was the widest runner from the 600m mark. Her time was nearly 1/2 second faster than the other 900m race a BM55 event.
Congratulations to all the Owners, huge thanks to Matt Smith and his team who have worked hard on improving her race craft. Wonderful ride from a tricky barrier by Rachael Murray who used great skill and strength to get our girl home.
