About

Back Me Up Benny is a 6yo bay/brown gelding from Australia trained by Kristi Evans at Murray Bridge. He is by the stallion Fiorente out of the dam Secret Selection. To date he has recorded four career wins. On 1 Jan 2024 at Murray Bridge he secured his most important victory, winning the $25,000 Class 1 Set Weight race. He has been a profitable selection for bettors; wagering on him throughout his career would have produced a 26% return on investment.
