Grahame Begg predicts a bright future for Bennetta following her stylish win in the $200,000 Magic Millions Fillies & Mares Handicap (1300m) at the Gold Coast. Bennetta came wide on the turn from well back and produced a powerful finale to race clear for an easy win. Beggs is now aiming her for the Coolmore Classic 1500m. He says: 'She's a horse that is really on the move...I think there are bigger things in store but she'll be in the paddock on Monday."
