Hailing from South Australia and from a family very much entrenched in racing, it was no surprise Ben followed suit! Having lived in Qld for 14 years, Ben retired from race riding in 2018 and joined the team as travelling foreman. His wealth of experience and knowledge is a huge asset to our team. Ben has been an integral part of the success of our champion 2yo Best Of Bordeaux, and the promising Maotai travelling with them on their Sydney campaigns. 

Ben loves his role here at KFR and feels he is blessed to have the best office views around! He gets real satisfaction working with the horses and seeing the success that is a result of all the hard work put in by all the staff. He also enjoys working with the younger team members and helping them develop their skills in a safe and knowledgeable manner. 

Ben is a key member of our senior team.
